Elliott Light grew up outside Washington, D.C. in McLean, Virginia before the beltway encircled the capital city, before farms were turned into housing developments, and before open fields became mega-malls. Light attended the University of Virginia, receiving degrees in Electrical Engineering and Law. He has several patents to his name. After stints as an environmental lawyer and a high tech in-house counsel, he practiced patent law in a private law firm. Now retired, he resides in Naples, FL with his wife, Sonya. Throwaways is his fourth published novel.
