Author BioBrian Latimer is a college professor and part-time satirist that corrupts young minds to think critically and question authority. He likes to poke fun at the absurdity of academia because it's funny that people who hold multiple fancy pieces of paper still can't do simple things they should have learned in elementary school. Hence, he is in the middle of writing a book series about how bizarre people with PhDs really are. When not in front of the classroom, Brian conducts research, plays old video games, and flings himself down flights of stairs for fun.Connect with Brian LatimerAmaz…
