Autorenporträt
Roger J. Higgins was born in England, in the County Cheshire, and emigrated with his parents and younger brother to the United States when he was 6 and 3/4. At the advanced age of ten, Roger taught himself the art of swearing, a skill he found useful in his thirty-odd years of playing rugby, where he was noted for his stone hands, his lack of size for certain positions and lack of speed for all the rest. As a young United States naval officer serving on a guided-missile destroyer many years ago, he also learned that sometimes having fifty-five oaths at your command can be entirely inadequate to the occasion. Roger became a lawyer after retiring from the Navy. After clerking for a Tax Court judge, who taught him the value of telling your story so as to win your reader to your side, Roger worked for a number of very large law firms, eventually becoming a partner at a firm with the grandest bankruptcy practice of them all. Roger continues to practice law at a much smaller and less grand law firm and to write novels to his own taste. He is having a wonderful time doing so.
