 <bioghist encodinganalog="545" id="hb"><head altrender="history"><emph render="bold">Biographical Sketch</emph></head><p>Richard Mosher was born April 24, 1949, in Mussoorie, India, the son of missionary parents.  He lived in a number of different countries before coming to the United states, where he held a variety of jobs before becoming a free lance writer.  He says he uses his varied experiences as realistic background for his stories, but does not base his plots or characters directly on them.
