Bob Rich
Bob Rich first learned the art of storytelling around campfires at summer camps in northern Ontario, Canada. Growing up, reading Hemingway inspired him to write. Living on the shores of Lake Erie and the Florida Keys provide him with an abundance of his own tales to tell. He is the author of three books: Fish Fights, The Fishing Club, and Right Angle and is the coauthor of Secrets from the Delphi Café. Looking Through Water is his first novel and first to be made into a film.
