Marc Sercomb lives in the foothills of Los Angeles with his wife Robin, two cats, two motorcycles, and a chestnut Tennessee-Walker horse named Whiskey.  A life-long Southern Californian, he attended California State University, Northridge, where he studied Journalism and English Literature.  He has been a teacher for twenty-three years.

An avid reader of both fiction and nonfiction, World War II and European history have always been of particular interest to him.  Marc likes to spend his spare time watching movies with his wife and cats, hanging out with good friends, and riding his motorcycles in the beautiful mountains of the Angeles National Forest.

He wanted to write a book about the miraculous resilience of the human spirit and the unexpected kindness of strangers and enemies during dark and dangerous times.  Of Picasso’s Motorcycle he says, “This story kind of haunted me for a while.  That’s how I knew I had to write it.”
