Notă biografică
The author, James Theodore (J.T.) Hollin Jr., was born in Tuskegee, Alabama, during the flight training of the Tuskegee Airmen. At the end of World War II, his parents relocated to Yuma, Arizona, where he attended elementary school and high school. He graduated from the University of Arizona in Tucson, earning a B.S. degree in aerospace engineering. After college, he completed U.S. Air Force pilot training and flew as a USAF pilot for five years. His duty assignments included flying as an F-4 Phantom co-pilot, and a one-year tour as a Forward Air Controller flying combat missions during the Vietnam War. The war experiences moved him to probe his soul as to man's compelling reasons for warfare, especially when driven by cultural and economic factors. Following military service, he briefly worked as an engineer with AiResearch Manufacturing Company in Phoenix. Moved by the spirituality of flying, he changed careers in 1972, becoming a pilot for Delta Air Lines in Atlanta. Over thirty-one years, he earned ATR ratings on the DC-9, and Boeing 727, 757, and 767 aircraft. He also flew as a captain on the Lockheed L-1011, McDonnell-Douglas MD-11, and retired as a Boeing 777 captain. While an airline pilot, he attended law school, received his Juris Doctor degree, and was admitted to the Georgia State Bar in 1979. He has continuously been concerned with the status of the less fortunate and the sacredness of planet Earth. The author presently works as a registered patent attorney, in addition to having begun a writing career, motivated by his having seen the inequity and frequent callousness in mankind's interactions with one another.
