Author Biography
Rob Fisher graduated from Gonzaga High School in Washington DC, where he broke his leg playing football on the opening kick-off of senior year. He was a wrestler at Duke University, although not particularly good at it. He received a PhD in economics from Duke and a law degree from Harvard Law School (magna cum laude). He worked as a gas station attendant and a motel clerk, labored on a tobacco and cattle farm, taught at a number of colleges and universities, clerked for a federal judge, and toiled at a consulting firm, various law firms, and for the government. He was also a volunteer fireman. His avocation-along with his brother-is the collection and restoration of antique fire trucks, although his brother is the brains behind the operation. He is the very proud father of four. His dog and co-author of Field of Gourds is named Bella and is more trouble than you can imagine.
