Autorenporträt

A horseplayer by birth, Mike Helm was born the day his father cashed a winning trifecta ticket at Aqueduct (the winning mounts: Blue Booties, Tell Me Now, and It's a Boy). When not at the track, Mike writes for the San Francisco Chronicle and Utne Reader and manages a salvage business. He also places wagers on writers as the publisher of City Miner books, in Berkeley, California.
