Once upon a time, coincidence, fate, and magic conspired to introduce three big dreamers—Mark, Karen, and Josh. And new friends became forever friends who, separately and together, use their creative talents to change the world a little bit at a time. Award winning author and photographer Mark Kimball Moulton was born and raised in Danbury, Connecticut, and graduated from the University of Connecticut with a Bachelor of Science degree in Horticulture. He is a seasoned traveler and avid outdoorsman who also enjoys renovating period homes. Mark's photography is available on greeting cards, calendars, candle labels, and as framed prints. He is also a contributing photographer for A Simple Life magazine. Currently, Mark has two gift books and twenty-two illustrated children's books to his credit including The Visit: The Origin of "The Night Before Christmas.” Visit Mark at markkimballmoulton.blogspot.com.
