Jay Gross is a cynical humorist, a former newspaper reporter and editor (but I've reformed!), a magazine writer and editor, a non-fiction author, a freelance writer, and a commercial photographer. He's also a geek (not planning to reform anytime soon), and most recently a novelist, with two published novels to his credit. A native of Aiken, South Carolina, he's called central South Carolina home since the 1970s, but admits to having lived other places, even North Carolina. He loves cats, books, art and classical music.
