Daniel M. Ford
1978
Daniel Ford is a fantasy fiction author from Baltimore, Maryland. He was born and raised in the state and asserts that he always had a fascination with fantasy since he watched “The Hobbit” when he was only four. Since that time, he has always been interested in any stories that had swords, superheroes, elves, knights, dwarves, giants, warriors, dragons and wizards. He would eventually stumble on “The Fenian Cycle of Irish Mythology” and “Homer” with the former leading him to Gregory and Years before he proceeded to Joyce, Longley, and Heaney. His diversion into academia soon got him back in college, where he studied at George Mason University, the Villanova University and Boston College, which he says made his parents think he was overdoing his education.
