Steven Acker

Steven Acker holds a B.S. (history and English) from Northern Michigan University and an M.Ed. from Viterbo University. His academic path has taken him through thirty-four years of teaching high school history and English. His personal passion has taken him to Civil War battlefields, archives, and reenactments. From battlefield to camp, from campfire to trench, the gritty life of the Civil War soldier has always fascinated Steven. He has found historical fiction a great tool for combining his historical research and the human narrative.Steven also enjoys spending time with his daughter, bicycling, kayaking, snowshoeing, watercolor painting, and most of all, being passionately alive.
