Peter Hardy was born in December in the little town of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Since then he has climbed Mt. Kenya on Christmas, slapped a seal in New Zealand, betrothed a bride in Beijing, snorkeled with sharks in Belize, rode rapids in Bali, deferred a diploma in Mexico, rescued a rhesus in Rwanda, serenaded a street corner in Prague, clutched a crocodile in Thailand and narrated a novel in Maine. Exactly one of these exploits is untrue. He is currently teaching mathematics and zen, putting poetry to music and creating a sustainable lifestyle with his family on Rainbow Farm in Maine.
