Autorenporträt
An award-winning artist, author, & filmmaker, Jonathan Schork was born and raised in the Catskill Mountains of New York State, and spent several decades of his adult life in a solar house on the end of an island in the Florida Keys (where he developed and patented several alternative energy systems electronic devices). With a relentless curiosity and a determined ethos of community service, Schork includes among his interests Balinese Gamelan Music, history, public education, science, community activism, cuisine, & couture. He is a past board member of several not-for-profit corporations, and currently sits on the board of directors of a small Tampa Bay area arts & entertainment 501(c)3. Widowed in 2006 after 25 years of marriage to his high school English teacher, he resides today in a partially renovated, condemned house in St.Petersburg, Florida, with his mother, his girlfriend, and his semi-tame, stray cat. More Tales is his sixth book.
