Robert G. Culp was raised in the small southern town of Stuttgart AR. After being taken out of the public school system at age 10, Robert was home schooled for the remainder of his youth and has been accepted into the University of Central Arkansas, The University of Arkansas At Little Rock and The University of Arkansas. During his formative years Robert would become immersed in fantasy novels, which would influence his creativity for years to come, such as Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and the Chronicles of Narnia. Though, the biggest impact on young Robert's life would be the guiding hand of his now deceased grandfather, R.D. Dickson, who still lives on in Robert's heart. In 2019, Robert would go on to launch his own independent publishing imprint, called Steel House Publishing, located in his home state of Arkansas. The first book to be published under this banner is the revised edition of Knight School, with more to come.
