Author Information

Gonzalo Ferreyra’s day job for close to 30 years has been in various capacities in the book industry, but on weekday evenings and weekends he can be found in his woodshop working on an ambitious mid-century furniture piece or tinkering to see what he can create from the fantastic cut-offs in his scrap bin. He lives in Castro Valley, California, with his wife and two small dogs, and likes to torment his two daughters by asking them to join him on a “quick” visit to the lumberyard.
