Simon Foster hails from Sydney, Australia, but has called New York home for many years. He holds a degree in writing and pays the bills by working as an ad man: a job that, whilst ranking just above car salesman in the credibility stakes, has helped him hone his writing skills and seen him walk the red carpet at the Emmys. Married with two daughters, he spends his time working, writing and chasing errant children around the house. He cycles, reads and visits the pub for relaxation: not necessarily in that order.
