Russell Beck grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana, where a few outstanding English teachers at Cathedral High School sparked a lifelong love of writing and critical thinking.
In 1967 and 1968, while at the University of Buffalo, he wrote a sports column titled The Athletic Supporter for the student newspaper. It was more humor than highlights, à la Dave Barry.
He now lives in Chiang Mai, Thailand, with his wife, Naruedee, where he continues to write, reflect, and occasionally volunteers… to take out the garbage.
