Robert Pudlock is the author of The Storm Council series — The Storms Never Forget.
His historical fiction chronicles America's deadliest hurricanes through the lives of the people who endured them and the institutional failures that determined who survived.
The series includes: Galveston 1900 (the deadliest natural disaster in American history), Miami 1926 (the hurricane that ended the Florida land boom — 100th anniversary September 2026), Okeechobee 1928 (the second-deadliest disaster in US history, largely forgotten), and Labor Day 1935 (the most intense hurricane to ever make US landfall).
With professional experience in disaster housing, manufactured housing policy, and emergency management, Pudlock writes from the intersection of field experience and deep archival research.
Based in Tallahassee, Florida — home to the Florida Division of Emergency Management and Florida State University's nationally ranked emergency management program.
