Ari Bruening is an urban planner and an attorney, but all he's really wanted to do since he was in fifth grade is to write stories for young readers. He lives in Salt Lake City, Utah with his family and an overweight dog.
Since graduating magna cum laude from Harvard Law School, where he was an editor for the Harvard Law Review, Ari has published numerous articles relating to planning and zoning, theology, and history. Previously, he was the graduation speaker at Brigham Young University, where he received a B.A. summa cum laude in philosophy.
