Tim Raab


Biography

I have been in corporate America for over 30 years and have seen major lay-offs, office violence, age, pay and sexual discrimination, spurious decision-making, drug addiction, suicides, and the financial ruin of good people who trusted management. I have a unique perspective from having served as a supervisor up to a Vice President and spent most of those years in Information Technology, a few with Fortune 500 companies. I have written many non-fiction articles on technology for magazines and Web sites and bring a currency and technological background to my fiction.

I live and work in central Ohio as does my wife, who is trainer for a global financial firm. My daughter lives and works in Cleveland as an archivist/librarian for a famous museum.

We enjoy reading everything, watching old movies, and coooking on our deck with our three dogs and one cat.

I have recently completed a history of high school football in Ohio which will be published soon and am outling the follow-up to Friday at Four
