As an informal educator, Deron Ash has had the opportunity to teach over 15,000 students in science and arts workshops over many years. He helped to found the Imagine Nation Children's Museum in Bristol, CT as the Director of Education. The children that he's met along the way (including his own three beautiful boys!) have been a wonderful source of inspiration for writing poems and stories. He lives with his family in the Phoenix area where they enjoy the stunning night skies.
