Jim Wallace lived in Norway for a year on a Fullbright, taught school in Kampala, Uganda for three years, and worked in Tokyo teaching English and writing English language textbooks. Later, Jim was senior editor at McGraw-Hill for six years and then acquisitions editor for two years. Jim moved to Vermont in the 1970s and kept up with an eclectic set of hobbies: riding motorcycles, editing books, DJing on the radio, fixing cars, and chainsawing lumber.
