Mark L. Van Name, whom John Ringo has said is "going to be the guy to beat in the race to the top of SFdom," has worked in the high-tech industry for over 30 years and today runs a technology assessment company in the Research Triangle area of North Carolina. A former executive vice president for Ziff Davis Media and a national technology columnist, he's published over a thousand computer-related articles and multiple science fiction stories in a variety of magazines and anthologies, including the Year's Best Science Fiction, multiple original Baen anthologies, and Jim Baen's Universe. His novel, One Jump Ahead, the first in the Jon & Lobo series, appeared in June 2007, and the second book in the series, Slanted Jack, is out June 2008. T.K.F Weisskopf Toni Weisskopf is the Publisher of Baen Books. With Josepha Sherman she compiled and annotated the definitive volume of subversive children's folklore, Greasy Grimy Gopher Guts, published by August House, now in its third printing. Weisskopf is a graduate of Oberlin College with a degree in anthropology.
