David Gordon

Award Winning and Internationally Read Writer David Gordon has been a social studies teacher, principal, and founding owner of the Grand Canyon College Preparatory Academy in Tempe, Arizona. He grew up reading and watching science, mystery, horror, thrillers, and historical fiction. Now he writes them. He is also a big baseball fan. He has combined his various passions in the Jigsaw, Case File, and The Adventure of Moly series, which focuses on time-traveling teens, supernatural investigators, and time-traveling dogs thrust into major historical events—many of which never made the standard history books. He was born in New York and now lives in Arizona with the love of his life Gwyn. They are both dog people and enjoy travel and food—Italian, Asian, Middle Eastern, and Indian cuisines in particular. He is also currently an Instructional Assistant at Roosevelt Elementary School in Mesa, Arizona, and a political writer for Blog for Arizona.

"I chose the combination of science fiction-fantasy and historical fiction because I wanted to entertain readers with good and thought-provoking stories. I also wanted to educate readers on the forgotten episodes of history and hopefully provide some subtle commentary on the human condition."
