Jack McGuigan is a native of Los Angeles. Twisted Pair is informed by his professional experience: he spent 20 years working for telephone companies, managing sales; marketing; installation and repair; engineering and business offices. He studied English at Rockhurst University and received an MBA from the University of Colorado. These varied experiences provided the foundation for his debut novel, which reflects the changing environments of the telephone industry and of Los Angeles in the early 2000's. Jack lives in Southern California with his wife.
