| Introduction | Born in Syracuse 1962, George L. King was raised in DeWitt, N.Y. where he attended school graduating in 1981. His family owned a cottage on the Rideau Canal Waterway in Canada, which he visited for many years and gave him a great love of the water. Shortly after graduating George joined the U.S. Army and being able to seize the opportunity, he attended night school earning enough college credits to be considered a junior. During active duty in the Army, he traveled to Moscow, Paris, and many spots in Germany where he was stationed. George's interest in reading increased while reading one Star Trek novel after another, then expanded to some fantasy, then action/adventure. His daughters will pull him away periodically from his favorite contemporary writers to enjoy an Agatha Christie, John Steinbeck, or Esther Forbes' Johnny Trumain. After his honorable discharge, he went on to complete his Bachelor’s at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University '87, and came out to California, where he currently lives with his wife and two daughters, subsequently having finished his MBA at West Coast University '90. George has spent the last 20+ years working in finance related fields. |
