About the Author

Kurt Dinan

I live and work in the suburbs of Cincinnati with my wife and four children, affectionately referred to as "The Crime Spree." I've taught high school English for over the last twenty-one years, and while I've never pulled any of the pranks detailed in DON'T GET CAUGHT, I was once almost arrested in college for blizzarding the campus with fliers promoting a fake concert.
