Bob Fields

Following a successful career as an Air Force Officer, Bob Fields, a native of Houlton, pursued a business career focused on the development of new products for the communications industry. After his retirement from business in 1999, he launched a career as a freelance writer. His early work appeared in regional magazines, company-oriented newsletters, and blogs related to the environment.

Bob’s first book, a memoir titled Letters to Lyla, is a story of a boy coming of age in the 1940s. That book was followed by another memoir, Letters to Savanah Belle, and an anthology, Memories From a Shoe Box. His first novel, Rendezvous with Destiny, was published in May 2015. He has several short stories published as eBooks.

A graduate of the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business, Bob lives and writes from his restored 1809 home in Central New York where he, his wife Janice, and three children operated a Quarter Horse Training Facility for several years.
