About the Author

Dean Rhodes retired in January 2024 from an award-winning, 40-year career in journalism. He graduated from Arizona State University in December 1982, and from 1989-94, he covered popular music for The Phoenix Gazette, the now-defunct afternoon daily newspaper in Arizona’s capital city. His love of popular music dates back to the mid-1960s when his U.S. Air Force father was stationed outside of London, England, from 1964-68, during the heyday of the Beatles. He also has been an editor for mainstream and Tribal newspapers in Oregon, North Dakota and Washington state, performed as a standup comedian and written several yet-to-be-produced screenplays. He lives in Port Angeles, Wash., with his wife, Patricia, and is continuing to write.
