Autorenporträt
Gary Neil Gupton grew up working on his uncle's tobacco farm and growing vegetables in their family garden. He left his rural roots and went to a prestigious college in an old tobacco manufacturing city. Beyond that he explored foreign lands, but mission trips to Guatemala helped him re-discovered what was important. The children of rural Guatemala inspired his first publication, a children's chapter book, Time to Meet Max. Natural Causes is his first novel about adolescents growing up.
