J Michael Jarvis
J. Michael Jarvis writes from his experiences as a professional jet pilot, yacht captain and global adventurer with thousands of true, remarkable and often hilarious stories of how he mucked things up. From roller-skating across France as a teen, to escaping pirates as a yacht captain in the Caribbean Sea, to flying Sir Richard Branson and Chuck Yeager from some of the world's most remote airports, Jarvis has lived a life even the most imaginative writers can only begin to fictionalize. Jarvis is a graduate of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautics. He is a captain of both air and sea. He holds an Air Transport Pilot license and a Coast Guard Master License, allowing him to command yachts and airplanes through experiences from North and South America to most Caribbean island nations. A survivor of a 1986 airplane crash, Jarvis has lived by his twisted version of an old pilot's adage. "Any landing you can crawl away from with broken arms and legs-on fire-is a good one." Jarvis continues to fly and write about his adventures on the sea and in the sky. His humor is both inspirational and thought-provoking, with rare insight into the generosity we are given with each extended day of our fragile lives. An active member of Southern California Writers Association, Jarvis lives in his birth town of Newport Beach, California, where he is happily married with four adult children. French Roll is his first book. Connect with J.
