Autorenporträt
Joe Hipp is a retired Air Force Navigator, studied Journalism at Texas A&M, landed a Texas Press Association internship on the San Antonio Express-News before graduation in 1954. That began his writing career. He flew in the backseat of an Air Defense Command F-89, running intercepts until released from active duty, worked on a weekly newspaper until recalled in 1959 (Lebanon Crisis). With tours in England, Vietnam and Germany, he retired from the Air Force in 1986, and began traveling in a motorhome, volunteering with Habitat for Humanity and church builders. Writing three non-fiction books and his first novel, he settled in the Army Residence Community. Traveling the Lewis and Clark trail several times, he discovered the story of 'Walks With Bear.'
