Paris Mentis

Paris Mentis has led the roustabout life of a writer. Born in New York of Greek immigrant parents, he grew up in the Midwest where he attended the University of Iowa, receiving a Master's degree in history. He migrated west, traveled throughout Europe and Mexico, hopped freights, hitch-hiked, taught school, worked a stint in the merchant marine. He has lived and traveled extensively in Greece, seeking out antiquities and sacred sites. Trains and tramp steamers are his favorite means of transportation. Currently he resides in the mountains of Northern California, where he writes, reads, listens to classical music; and basks at his favorite summer lake where he contemplates a magic mountain which soars to Olympian heights.
