Bill Bungeroth has been telling stories since childhood; however, they were written inside his head and never published. It was when he moved with his wife to San Francisco and encouraged by friends did he start sharing his creative storytelling. His first published short story was The Ride, followed by a series of published stories consisting of Last Call, The Poseur, Long Live The King, In Memoriam, The Teach, The Gun Club, and The Adventures of Unfiltered Man.
A Different Place & Time, his first novella, was a coming of age story about four teenagers forced to make choices during the racially charged sixties. It was a look back in time for the author. A fan of Hemingway, Ludlum, Clancy, and Baldacci and their ability to get the reader to turn-the-page, The Wayfarer, is the release of his first novel, and follows their tradition. Its setting takes place in three dimensions: the past, the present, and the future, where an unforgiving natural force creates the backdrop for a riveting mystery thriller.
Bill received his bachelor’s degree in economics from Lafayette College and followed it with a successful career in the military, broadcasting, healthcare, nutraceuticals, and comedy. When he can find the time, he spends it reading, walking with his wife and dog, Teddy, as well as with his sons and daughters-in-law, and grandchildren. He also enjoys watching the Cubs, Bulls & Bears, and attending the Chicago Symphony and its jazz series. Both he and his wife live in downtown Chicago.
