Meier, Brock: - After a half-century career of scientific research in infrared, lasers, and human vision, Brock Meier now devotes himself to finding the incredible, untold stories of little-known people from centuries past. Written, cultural, and material history are the foundations from which he imagines engaging and powerful new stories for today. Come with him on his journeys, as his "Stories Begin Where the History Ends."When not writing, Brock Meier finds time to make exotic wines and experimental desserts as he listens to jazz, opera, and classical music-all while thinking about where the next story is headed. Regardless of what he finds himself doing, Brock Meier endeavors to venture out on the keen edge of life, where Word and Spirit reveal the very reason for existence, and the purpose of it all.Brock Meier lives in the Hill Country of south Texas, where the hills possess a quiet sort of beauty, running with cold, spring-fed streams, and treed with ancient cypress.
