About this author

edit data

David Finch grew up on a farm in northern Illinois. He earned a degree in music engineering at the University of Miami, where he stunned the locals with his gleaming, pasty white skin, then returned to Illinois, where he worked as an audio engineer and studied sketch-comedy writing at the Second City in Chicago. He and his wife, Kristen, married in 2003, and in 2008, David was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome. His essay “Somewhere Inside, A Path To Empathy” appeared in The New York Times and became the basis for his first book, The Journal of Best Practices. David lives in northern Illinois with Kristen and their two children.
