Ethan Miller worked at Ford Motor Co.'s stamping plant in Walton Hills near Cleveland, Ohio, for more than 31 years. Retiring in 1986, he continued to call Ravenna, Ohio, his home, but ventured to the Southwest for 10 winters, and spent several summers as a volunteer campground host at McClure Campground for the USFS in western Colorado. After 17 years in the West, he relocated to southeastern Ohio with his wife, Annie Miller, and their dog, Ranger. He made his transition in September 2008, still working on the sequel to his first novel. He leaves behind two sons and three grandchildren, all living in Ohio. The sequel, being completed by his surviving wife, will be published in 2018, called Return of the White Raven.
