Biographie:
Edward Henry was raised by a single mother, along with three sisters and a brother, in San Jose, California. He graduated from Willow Glen High School (Go Rams) in the class of 1979. At a young age, Edward developed a passion for food. He first learned to cook and bake from his mother. Later on, his brother-in-law helped him take his skills to the next level.
During his adult life, Edward was a member of the United States Air Force (honorably discharged) and a former member of IBEW Local 332 out of San Jose, California. He is now a proud member of IBEW Local 595 out of Dublin, California. His current work finds him back in the nuclear industry where he started as a youth and where he will probably work until retirement. Twice divorced, he has three beautiful adult daughters he sees as often as possible. Edward is an outdoorsman who enjoys hunting, fishing, hiking, and mountain biking (to name a few).
For several years, he had thought about writing a novel with several ideas coming to mind. His writing career started with a non-fiction novel and screenplay Nome's Polar Princess. Based on true events, the story is about a steamy affair with a married woman. Not wanting to stop with just one novel, he wrote Haters. It was a tear-jerker for him as he wrote it and he feels a sincere sense of accomplishment for this novel. There is more coming from this series - a prequel and a sequel.
