About the Author
Roger MacBride Allen was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut on September 26, 1957. He graduated Boston University in 1979 with a degree in journalism, and published his first novel in 1984. He has written over twenty novels to date, (three of which were New York Times bestsellers), two extremely obscure technical manuals, and a modest number of short stories. He is also the co-author (with his father, Thomas B. Allen) of Mr. Lincoln’s High-Tech War, published by the National Geographic Society. In 1994, he married Eleanore Fox, an officer in the U. S. Foreign Service. In March 1995, they moved to Brasilia, Brazil, where Eleanore worked at the embassy. In August, 1997, Eleanore’s next assignment took them back to the United States. Their son, Matthew Thomas Allen, was born in 1998. A posting to Leipzig, Germany, made that the birthplace of their second son, James Maury Allen in 2004. Another posting to Washington followed, and then a two-year assignment in Mexico City, Mexico from 2010 to 2012, before coming home once again. Unless or until another posting takes them out of the country again, they live in Takoma Park, Maryland, just north of Washington, D. C.
