Andrew F. O'Hara

A military veteran, retired highway patrolman and medical worker, Andy O’Hara lives in Sacramento, California with his wife, Susan. With a lifetime of travel around the world and experiences he never imagined, Andy has had a wealth of experience with people he admired – and some he didn’t. His experiences have taken him through the Vietnam years, culture wars, political upheavals and personal tragedy. Hospitalized with PTSD after 25 years, he had to hang up his police uniform, struggle through recovery, and find another satisfying career as a hospital medical assistant -- and now writer.

With a youngster’s unfulfilled dream to be a teacher and writer, Andy still found time to assist other police officers with job related trauma, record his experiences, and translate them into the writing that has culminated his journey. With three books, he continues to search out the best in people, their experiences and their dreams so he can share them with others.
