Nelson Clark

Born in La Mesa, California -- in a working poor neighborhood far from the obscenely beautiful coastal city of San Diego -- Nelson Clark could not wait to get away and see the world. He wanted to become a Writer.

He has lived in a cave in the jungle along the Na Pali coast of Kauai, burrowed down in the double-wides of the deep South, and cavorted in the Yankee enclaves of The People's Republic of Cambridge, MA.

He has been an actor, a solider for nine years in the U.S. Army, a tour guide on the Kilauea Volcano, an advertising copywriter and worked in architecture, among many other occupations.

He has published non-fiction, several plays have been staged, television has been written for, and along the way several screenplays have been optioned.

Mr. Clark, his wife, Virginia, and their faithful dog, Wyatt Earp Clark, currently spend most of their days living in Portugal. In his spare time he avoids all attempts to write about himself in the third person, knowing it fools no one.
