Tom Dubbe was a pre-WWII baby christened in Jordan, Minnesota. He graduated from the old Jordan High School in 1956 before earning his Bachelor of Science Degree at University of Minnesota, a Masters of Science Degree and his Ph.D. at Columbia State University.

Dubbe was honorably discharged from the U.S. Army from active duty before moving into his prolific procreation phase of his life. He married and fathered four great kids; John Paul, Ann Marie, Patricia Louise and Mary Margaret.

Tom was a corporate executive for thirty years where he admits that he was temporarily afflicted with a mild case of big-shot-itus, which luckily for his close friends and editor is in remission. Tom got a divorce in 1985 and then began his twenty-year mission of penning Nightmares and Secrets.

He is loved by his four children and their spouses and amused and amazed by his seven energetic grandchildren. He protectively pledges to make sure his descendants are never abused in body, mind, or spirit.

He is a full time author and avid reader with a soybean farming operation as a hobby. He spends his Minnesota summers mastering golf in 18-hole circles five times a week. Tom Dubbe is active in the National Writer's Union and many other memberships and associations including:
