Dennis Pritchett

I learned to love great story telling listening to my mom describe her childhood during the Great Depression as she was able to tell stories in ways that kept me spellbound. I was fascinated to learn how that time was so different from the 50’s and 60’s when I grew up.

In high school, some phenomenal teachers provided me with the insight to understand how great literature can change the way we view the world. I have loved writing ever since.

During the Vietnam War, I volunteered and served as a combat infantryman and that experience gave me tremendous insight into the value of life, changing me forever.

After forty years in the business world, I enriched my life by traveling with my beautiful and talented wife, Liz, to places I’ve always dreamed of, enjoying long walks with my dogs, Jake, Emily, and Princess, and writing.

The Aaron Gregory detective series has been inspired by my love of great writers like John D. McDonald, Michael Connelly, and T. Jefferson Parker.
