Writing is a natural outgrowth of Roger's formal education. He earned a bachelor's degree in English from St. Bonaventure University and completed graduate work in English literature at the University of Rochester. Before entering the business world to work for a large financial services company, Roger taught English literature at Canandaigua Academy and Penfield High School, where he also served as assistant football coach. Roger lives with his wife, Mary Ann, in Penfield, New York. They have three children and three grandchildren. A former contributor to Road & Track and The New York Times, Tom Cotter is the author of twelve bestselling automotive books, including seven about automotive archeology, such as The Cobra in the Barn and The Corvette in the Barn. His most recent book, 50 Shades of Rust: Barn Finds You Wish You'd Discovered, is already a best seller. He also is the co-author of an award-winning history of the legendary race team Holman-Moody. Before focusing on writing, Cotter built one of the most successful PR agencies in motorsports with clients in NASCAR, Formula One, Indycar, road racing, drag racing, and motorcycle racing.
