An Associate of the British Institution of Metallurgists, Roger attended postgraduate studies at the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom, where he earned a Ph.D.
Roger is the coauthor of a patent on the development of the metal composite material used for the antenna of the Hubble Space Telescope. He began writing in his spare time while serving as the Director of Research of an Aerospace Materials Company in the United States.
His memoir, My Father the Viking, won 3rd Prize in the 2006 Linda Joy Myers Memoir Competition of the National League of American Pen Women, an open competition for published and unpublished works. He received an Honorable Mention for an earlier version of the first 50 pages of The Brothers Cro-Magnon from a contest run by the Speculative Literature Foundation.
He is the author of four novels: No Man’s Sons, Tommy’s War, Ice, and Davide.
Roger is a member of the Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance. He is a co-organizer of the Portland Writers Group (480 members) and spent several years as the host of some of their monthly writing workshops. Tess Gerritsen acknowledged him in her bestselling medical thriller, Harvest, for providing research materials.
With friends from the Appalachian Mountain Club, Roger hiked in the Austrian and Italian Alps, traveled in France and Israel, and trekked in the Kangchenjunga and Annapurna Himalayan regions of Nepal, the Tien Shan [mountains/Mountains] of the Central Asian republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Russia. He writes full-time and lives in Maine.
