Autor/-in: Gordon Parker

Gordon Parker's novels draw on a lifetime of interesting places and unusal professions. He parlayed his first career as a broadcast journalist into successive positions as chief staff officer of a trade association, a senior executive in a telecommunications company, and, finally, as a lobbyist in Washington, D.C. Born in Louisiana, he grew up in Alaska. His experience has allowed him to witness the machinations of politics at both state and national capitals. Gordon calls Anchorage, Alaska, home but in recent years has divided his time among Alaska, Louisiana, Washington, D.C., and California. His novel's fascinating, fictional characters are created from a life spent observing the best and worst in people.
