Autorenporträt
Seeking a more upbeat, fast-paced reading experience for his young boys, Chris Contes began fiction writing later in his career--at age 45. With years of history in the automotive and theme park industries, Chris taps a diverse and eclectic range of work experiences that share a common thread--a love of making a day job out of his passions. His background also provides an engaging and technically accurate source for unique scene setting and storytelling. An avid fiction reader himself, Chris gravitates toward stories that are motivating, energetic, and faithful to technical details. Chris has a business degree from Arizona State University and spent ten years working at automotive test facilities for General Motors and Nissan. In 2005, he followed his dream and left the auto industry for a behind-the-scenes career leading ride maintenance projects and programs at Disneyland, Universal Studios Hollywood, and Knott's Berry Farm. He lives with his family near Los Angeles.
