Biographie de l'auteur

Dale E. Fox has a diverse background that includes a lengthy career in Information Technology as a consultant to the DuPont Corporation, ownership of a historic inn in Ridgway, Pennsylvania (The Towers Victorian Inn), and many years as an award winning Community and Economic Development powerhouse in the state of Pennsylvania.

Living with two different host families and travelling throughout western Turkey provided a uniquely in-depth glimpse into this fascinating culture. Dale is now involved with interfaith initiatives that focus on dispelling stereotypes about Muslims and performs public speaking engagements. Dale is a University Scholar at the University of Pittsburgh with a degree in history and political science.
