Jon comes from a literary family. His mother, Cecile Pepin Edwards, wrote many biographies for Houghton Mifflin Publishing, providing Jon with the inspiration to do research, a familiarity with the writing and editing business along with the desire to continue the family legacy in the literary field. After writing and publishing several fiction books over the past decade, From Truman to the 21st Century is Jon’s first non-fiction work. A compelling conviction to pass on personal experiences and the history of the second half of the twentieth century in an objective format became the motivation for the book. When he’s not writing, performing or painting Jon enjoys riding his motorcycle throughout the Ozarks and around historic Route 66.view less
