Author Bio
David Pipe was born in 1949 in a small Essex village. He attended a local grammar school, then the University of Hull, where he took a B.Sc. in chemistry. He worked in the pharmaceutical industry in England and South Africa before studying for a PhD in organic chemistry at Imperial College. After spells at universities in Geneva and Mulhouse, David joined the oil industry in Germany where, aged 53, he gratefully took a redundancy package.
Following a period of self-employment he wound down his business, eventually giving it up to scratch the writing itch which has produced Sacrificing Starlight, a timely reminder of the risks our children face, and Henry’s Tale, where ghostwriting for his furry friend he describes the emotional growth of a puppy on the rollercoaster of life, compressed into a few weeks because puppies learn faster than their staff.
When he’s not writing, David spends his time travelling, reading, swimming and jogging. He is married and lives in Hamburg with his wife and their Border terrier Henry.
This sounds intriguing! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. It wasn’t quite my sort of thing, to be honest, but well written none the less.
