About the Author

George H. Tsegeletos was born in Chicago of Greek immigrants. When World War II erupted, the Tsegeletos family moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, where George's father found work in the shipyards. Today, George lives with his wife, Charlotte, in the small town of Sonoma, in the Wine Country of Northern California.

George is a former Marine who served in the Korean War. He has been a diver for over 45 years, having dived most of the world's oceans in his passion for the undersea. He says he won't hang up his fins until he can't make it down to the sea any longer.
