Michael Kasenow
He began to travel across America—“patching up wounds, learning through experience.” He worked a series of odd jobs from Michigan to Texas to New Mexico: cab driver, bartender, lumberman, janitor, butcher, and rancher, to name a few. “Living among a variety of unique personalities—the enchanted, the mystical—vagabonds, drifters and an occasional thief.” These experiences add a level of authenticity to his written work. In the early 1980s he taught himself mathematics. He earned his BS in Geology from Eastern Michigan University in 1986 and eventually obtained an MS and a Ph.D. from Western Michigan University. He has taught geology and hydrogeology at EMU since 1989. His publications include 14 books on the subject of groundwater analysis, and he has over fifty publications that include books, monographs and software. Most of his scientific work has been published by Water Resources Publications, out of Colorado. He has established himself as an innovator in the field of groundwater analysis, developing over fifty pragmatic equations. “Not bad for someone with no math or science ability.” He's been writing literature since the 10th grade. He’s working on another novel, more poems and “science stuff”. He travels to learn and lives in Michigan. “I’m enjoying watching my son grow. He’s a special wild flower.”
