Bruce H. Wolk is a nonfiction writer living in Denver, Colorado. Originally educated as a research biologist, he maintained parallel studies in creative writing and literature.

His current book, "The Sea of Peroxide," is a memoir based on his experiences as a New York City Paramedic at the start of the AIDS crisis. It is the only book ever written that documents the tragic disease at street level and the devastation it brought to patients, their families and friends.
