J. Randall Christopher
Heavily influenced by science fiction at a young age, J. Randall Christopher was often taken to the movies by his older brother, beginning when Randall was only six years old. The second movie Randall ever watched was the Battle in Outer Space, a 1959 movie adapted from a story by Jojiro Okami, who was an aeronautical engineer and test pilot at the time of the writing.
Captivated by the imagery and display of technology in this foreign film, this love of science fiction was also rewarded by such films as 2001-A Space Odyssey in 1968, Star Wars in 1977 and the television show Star Trek, the original series. Thank you, Gene Roddenberry.
Other significant influences include H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, Ray Bradburry and many other marvelous stories

Joshua T. Calvert
Joshua T. Calvert has traveled the world--on foot, by Jeep, by bicycle, by motorcycle, and lots of other ways besides. As you might imagine, he's seen many things most people never see - including an Iranian prison cell, from the inside! In Kyrgyzstan, he fared slightly better, narrowly avoiding being kidnapped for ransom. Skydiver, scuba diver, martial artist, adventurer - his goal is to experience everything possible, and then make it real to you in his books. And he's made a good run of it so far: in the Philippines, he did police training on multiple types of firearms (despite being no fan of guns himself); dove in Asian waters among sharks and shipwrecks; and patrolled with Sumatran jungle rangers.
