About the Author
J. Kent Layton has studied the history of the great Atlantic liners for over three decades. His books bring together, for the first time, many fabulous images, from numerous collections around the world to complement his outstanding research on the great Atlantic vessels. He is an active member of the Titanic Research & Modelling Association and lives in Central New York State. He lives in the Finger Lakes region of Central New York, and divides his time between his writing and his work as a piano tuner.
Bill Wormstedt first became interested in the Titanic after reading Walter Lord’s A Night to Remember in junior high school. He discovered the online Titanic community in 1995, and soon started commenting and writing about the Titanic, and his articles have been published in THS’s The Titanic Commutator, Encyclopedia Titanica, and his own web-site, Bill Wormstedt’s Titanic. With Tad Fitch and George Behe, he co-wrote The Lifeboat Launching Sequence Re-Examined, and is one of 11 co-authors of Report Into the Loss of SS Titanic: A Centennial Reappraisal. Bill is a computer programmer who lives and works in Seattle, Washington.
