Under the name of Jack Random, Ray Miller has devoted most of his adult life to writing. He has published eight novels, two volumes of plays, two collections of short stories, ten volumes of political essays, a collection of children’s stories and three books of poetry. Lost in Her Soul is his fourth. He was raised in the central valley of California, received a master’s degree from CSU Stanislaus, and worked in the public schools of California and Nashville as a Speech and Language Pathologist. He has marched the streets in protest, haunted jazz town bars, read poetry in cafes and town squares, strutted his hour upon the stage, crisscrossed the country by air, rail, highway and thumb, mourned at Wounded Knee, and paid tribute at the grave of Geronimo. Married to the love of his life, he is a pilgrim, a poet and a seeker of truth. His published works include Life Songs, Poems for a Pandemic, Poemics (Poems of Social and Political Justice), Washichu - The Killing Spirit, The Ghost Dance Insurrection (Jazzman Series), Number Nine - The Adventures of Jake Jones and Ruby Daulton, A Patriot Dirge (Jazzman Series), Hard Times - The Wrath of an Angry God, The Grand Canyon Zen Golf Tour (A Memoir), Pawns to Players (Chess Series): The Stairway Scandal, A Match for the White House, The Putin Gambit, D'Arc Underground & Other Plays (Volume One), Aphrodite House & Other Plays (Volume 2), Random Jack - Tales from Jazztown, Apache Jack - Native Visions & Stories and a collection of political essays: the Jazzman Chronicles: Volumes I-X (Crow Dog Press).Read more about this authorRead less about this author
