Jamie Larson spent his salad days in hard news, received an M.A. in Journalism from NYU, wrote for a number of places, from The Register Star to the New York Times and worked investigations for the The Albany Times Union. Working mostly magazine and digital these days, he estimates he’s written 500 to 1,000 published articles on Hudson Valley/Berkshire business, culture and farming. Larson now resides in Red Hook, New York, with his wife and two children. He is currently engineering a clock with a single 100-year hand, plays disc golf, cooks, writes fiction, and recently entered an armistice with his tenant groundhog, as she has just produced four cute pups from beneath the tool shed.
