Autor

Robert Fraga grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico, where his father helped make the atomic bomb and where Bob worked in the Los Alamos National Laboratory during summer vacations while at at Pomona College. Bob then moved to Canada. After graduating with his PhD at the University of British Columbia (1963-65), he moved to the Middle East, where he lived the next twenty years. He taught at the American University in Cairo where he learned a smattering of Arabic. Bob wrote The Greening of Oz (2012), about the town of Greensburg in western Kansas, that "came back green" after a tornado almost wiped it out, and in 2020, The Road through San Judas (2020), about the struggle between landless farmers and the wealthy Mexican family who wanted them gone. Bob lives in Lawrence, Kansas, and spends his summers in a 15th century home in rural France.
