Autorenporträt
Ronan Short was born in London, England soon after the start of World War II. After twenty-three years of an event-filled youth, he emigrated...first to New York, and eventually to Fairbanks, Alaska by 1966. He has had an 'Alaskan career' from senior marine technician to lowly laborer, from university lecturer in creative writing to commercial fisherman, and from state environmental specialist to DEW line teamster steward, and so on. He and his wife of 40+ years, Barbara Rinker, have two grown daughters and four wonderful grandchildren-well, most of the time.
