ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Jim Orr was born in upstate New York in 1940. He grew up in Vallejo, California during the fabulous Rock n’ Roll 50’s & 60’s.
He holds a degree in Health Science from San Francisco State College and attended graduate school at Golden Gate College. Also a graduate of the Santa Rosa School of Nursing, he worked as a Psychiatric Nurse for the California Department of Mental Hygiene and served in the Army Nurse Corp during the Vietnam War where he met his wife Joan who was also an Army Nurse.
Jim eventually left the Nursing Profession to become a Probation Officer with the Solano County Probation Department in Fairfield, California, attaining a senior administrative position with that agency.
The author is also a well known Napa Valley Wine Country Artist and has also conducted private wine tours throughout that famous wine region. He is the author of the travel book, A Day or Two in The Napa Valley. Jim has worked in many different professions, but regrets not having tried his luck at three others; a Geologist, a Stand Up Comic, and a Weight Guesser in the Circus!
