Autorenporträt

Descended from politicians, carneys and renegade Scots, Bo Shaffer was born in Pennsylvania but moved all over the country as a child. His father was a lineman in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), and whenever he didn't like a job, he'd move on. Bo had lived in fifty different places by the time he was in middle school. After his family finally settled for a while in Upstate New York, Bo graduated high school and took off around the country again: college in New Orleans, Army Ranger School in Georgia, working on an oil rig in the Gulf, doing contract work for NASA in Houston, running a French crepe and omelet restaurant in La Jolla, surfing from K-38 to Steamers Lane, hand-crafting leather in Santa Cruz and eventually ending up in UC Davis, where he worked as a vet surgical assistant while finishing his undergraduate degree.
