About Thomas J. Aron Contrary to the advice of his father, Thomas J. Aron became a lawyer and spent the next twenty-seven years proving that old Dad was right. A major accomplishment of his legal career was his collection of unusual experiences that have become the basis of much of his writing. He left the legal profession in 1994 to pursue fulltime his love of writing. Aron began writing for newspapers at age ten and continued this interest as an avocation until his mid-50s. He was the primary contributor to a 1989 news series about Denver’s controversial Two Forks Dam. It was awarded Best Series by the Colorado Press Association. For nine years he wrote Headgate, a monthly magazine column about water resources for agriculture. His environmental news reporting was highlighted by a 1995 story about pollution to a naturally pure underground water supply from a municipal sewage plan. His first novel, The Dam, was used in manuscript form by a citizen-activist group to help expose the dangerous deterioration of a major dam in the West. His short stories have been published, beginning with Xanadu, the literary journal of Doane College. A tribute to a childhood mentor was published in 1997 as The Legend of Ernie The Bear. This book has become a collectors item that continues to grow in value.
