Tim Grover is an accomplished writer, blogger, videographer, award-winning photographer, and published poet. His feature articles have appeared in The Iowan, the state's bimonthly magazine, the Des Moines Press-Citizen, Skywalker, Des Moines magazine, and the Cedar Falls Sun.

Growing up in Rowley, Iowa, Tim dreamed he'd be the next Harmon Killebrew. Lacking athletic skills, he collected baseball cards and read history books instead. But he was a 1970 Rowley Little League All-Star!

He later spun records at several radio stations, graduated from the University of Northern Iowa, and worked in TV production. In 1985, he became a weekend mobile DJ for Complete Music in Des Moines. Several years later, he and his wife Deb owned and operated the multi-system entertainment service. They sold the business in 2013 after more than 7000 events.

Tim lives in Pleasant Hill, Iowa, with his wife, Deb. Their three grown kids live nearby, and his second greatest joy is family camping; his first is being a Bompa to two amazing grandchildren.
