Born in Maywood, California, I attended Bell, Huntington Park, California, and Ismay, Montana high schools; served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the Korean War, attended Los Angeles State University; earned Master's Degrees in English and education; careered as a Montebello High School English teacher for thirty-two years; and retired in Redlands, California with my wife, Sharon.
For over 15 years, I wrote a humor column, titled "Life and Times" relating to topical subjects from adolescence to Viagra; published in three different California newspapers, the Norwalk Southeast Cities Tribune; the Cerritos Los Cerritos Community News, and the Redlands Daily Facts. I also published in national magazines: Trailer Life, Motorhome, and Trailblazer. Many of the articles were memoirs of forty years of on-the-road experience, including travels throughout all of the United States and Canada, several excursions into Mexico and Europe, and extensive tours of China, the U.K., Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
Four of my books have been published. Three travel memoirs, Where the Crown, Kilt & Shamrock Take You, a humorous romp through England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales; North to Alaska with a No-Account Cat; a 90 day, 5,000 mile motorhome adventure in Alaska, Canada and the Yukon; Echoes from Down Under, an amusing consideration of life in Australia and New Zealand, plus Only the Faces Change (A High School Odyssey),a satirical memoir of thirty-two years teaching: and Easy Writing Across the Curriculum or Anywhere Else, a how-to booklet.
Sincerely, Herb Williamsview less
