Robert Jordan - The Wheel of Time
Robert Jordan was born in 1948 in Charleston, South Carolina, where he now lives with his
wife Harriet, in a house built in 1797. He taught himself to read when he was four with
the incidental aid of a twelve-years-older brother, and was tackling Mark Twain and Jules
Verne by five. He is a graduate of The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina,
with a degree in physics. He served two tours in Vietnam with the U.S. Army; among his
decorations are the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Bronze Star with "V," and
two Vietnamese Crosses of Gallantry. A history buff, he has also written dance and theater
criticism. He enjoys the outdoor sports of hunting, fishing, and sailing, and the indoor
sports of poker, chess, pool, and pipe collecting. He has been writing since 1977 and
intends to continue until they nail shut his coffin.
