Christian Walker

I was born to itinerant teachers February 16, 1960 in a tiny town, in a clinic beside a grain elevator, in eastern Washington. From there our family moved every two years around the state until I was 6.

At the age of 6 my parents moved to Nigeria, West Africa, where we stayed until I was 12. We then moved to New York City. After two years there We left after North Dakota and finally after that Maryland where I married the most beautiful bride and have been ever since.

I enjoy writing, making music, art, golf, and racquet ball.

Sharing the house with me and my wife is our youngest daughter, although she is gone quite a bit now--sigh, two dogs, Billy and Calvin, and two cats, Elvis and Felina Turtle Bean. (Don't ask.)
