HAROLD TITUS

Author of “Below Zero”

When Harold Titus locates a story in the north woods he has a setting with which he is familiar. He knew the north woods; he knew lumber camps; he knew the lumber “jacks” and their ways, for he was born and raised with them. He is a native of Traverse City, Grand Traverse county, Michigan. His lullaby when an infant was the ring of the woodsman’s ax and the crash of the pine and spruce as they fell. He spent his boyhood days amidst the lumber camps that then dotted northern Michigan. He harks back to the stirring scenes of those boyhood days when he wants a setting and characters for the kind of a story he finds joy in writing.
