Driven by insatiable curiosity and a thirst for learning, Dr. William Evans has embraced a number of careers and a lifetime of perpetual challenges. He graduated from Williams College in 1956 and the Ohio State University College of Medicine in 1961, followed by surgery residency at the Medical College of Wisconsin and service in the United States Air Force. His combined passion for caring for the sick and performing surgery led him to a multitude of leadership roles at OSU, including Chief of Vascular Surgery, Director of Vascular Laboratory, Director of Emergency Services, and President of the Medical Staff. After holding the position of Professor through the 1980s, his own health forced his retirement from surgery in 1991.

Possessing a keen interest in how the mind processes information, Evans found himself a student of neuroscience at OSU and ultimately providing long-term care to psychiatric patients of the VA Hospital in Chillicothe, OH--his hometown. Because of his continued interest in horse breeding, his research led him to horse trainers Buck Brannaman and Bob King, from whom he learned new and advanced techniques in horse training. Evans realized he was equally fascinated by the manner in which a horse translates information and how it develops related physical skills over time.

Perhaps it is this fascination with the mind's pathways that led Evans to more fully embrace another lifelong passion: writing. The author of over 160 articles in the surgical literature, Evans is now exploring the more creative side of writing. His latest ambition blends his passion for his Appalachian roots, his immersion in science, and his interest in cultural complexities. His novels represent a unique combination of his interests, resulting in memorable characters engaged in human struggles.
