After seven years as a teacher, Don Robb began his second career in educational publishing. Don taught Spanish, French, and English as a second language at the high school level in Toledo, Ohio, and then at a junior high school in Hackensack, New Jersey, after graduating from Ohio University in Athens, Ohio, where he studied history and political science. His first work in publishing was with Holt, Rinehart as a foreign language consultant. He went on to work at Houghton Mifflin Co., where he became a vice president, in a range of editorial and marketing roles. In 1981, he quit that job to work at Charlesbridge (then Mastery Education Company).
Don is a voracious reader as well as a writer. His main interests are history, particularly American history, nonfiction science, and mysteries.
