Author Information

David Becker has spent his career in the visual arts and design. Though he has always enjoyed writing, he was too busy with work and family commitments to make a serious effort at it. After his late sister, Annie Jacobsen, had a novel published posthumously, Becker was inspired to give writing a serious try. He chose the setting after many family visits to Nova Scotia over the years, and Here's to Joe was the result. Becker has lived in New Brunswick, and currently lives in Ottawa.
