Tom Whitmore TOM WHITMORE has been a bookseller for over thirty years and a partner in a bookstore for twenty-nine; The Other Change of Hobbit in Berkeley, California. He's been a co-chair at a Worldcon (ConJosé in 2002), and implemented the first example of Elevator Party Hosts. He's been a reviewer for LOCUS, and once made Gene Wolfe jealous by telling him how much writing reviews for computer magazines paid. He's a massage therapist and a student of Hakomi. He was on the founding board of the Cohousing Association in the US, and lived for several years in Puget Ridge Cohousing. He collected art at cons before discovering that his grandmother had been a print dealer for most of her life. And he lived in the DC area twice -- once while working in a clerical job at the Library of Congress in the period of Nixon's impeachement, and once while working for the Office of Energy Information Validation in the Department of Energy. For stories of his connection with Aleister Crowley and his peculiar ability to find books, you'll have to ask in person. |
