John Lee Schneider was born and raised in the wilds of Hillsboro, Oregon, graduating from the University of Oregon in 1992 with a degree in Sociology and English and no practical skills whatsoever. Nevertheless, he managed to scrape a living working in the retail service industry, building stores and traveling throughout the country.<\/p>\n
He now supervises a small business out of Portland. Writing and Science Fiction have been a constant hobby since his early years; he is also an amateur dinosaur-enthusiast in his spare time, and can discuss T. rex and other dinosaurs bone-for-bone with most professional paleontologists.<\/p>\n
