As a board-certified rheumatologist, Glenn Parris has practiced medicine in the northeast Atlanta suburbs for over 30 years. He has been writing for nearly as long. Originally from New York City, Parris migrated south to escape the cold and snow, but fell in love with the southern charms of Georgia and Carla, his wife of 27 years. He now writes cross-genre in medical mystery, science fiction, fantasy, and historical fiction. The Renaissance of Aspirin, a Jack Wheaton medical mystery, was his debut novel.
