About the Author

Chris Bent graduated from Yale and became a Navy "Frogman" graduating from BUDS Class 31E, Basic Underwater Demolition/Seal School. He was an officer in Underwater Demolition Team 21 which eventually became Seal Team 4 in 1984. He had the honor of recovering several spacecraft, including Gemini 6/7 & AS-201, the very first Apollo Spacecraft to go into space. After the Navy he worked in retailing in various stores including Lord & Taylor, B. Altman, Brooks Bros, J.CREW, and even the World Wrestling Federation. He and his wife now run one of the most successful independent women's accessory stores in the country.

Troubled by all the pain and injustice in the world he is driven to write in brief chapters that touch universal truths. Helping us search and find where we are meant to go. Helping us make a difference. Helping us not to quit. Hopefully.
