Patrick Meisch is a high school science teacher who has harbored an ambition to write ever since his literature classes influenced him at a young age. He is passionate about educating future generations of people who can make a difference on topics such as climate change, resource management and sustainability, and responsible use of technology. His writing is often used as a vehicle to broach these topics in an engaging format. He lives, works, reads, and plays a lot of video games in Minnesota. Those the Future Left Behind is his debut novel.
"Patrick Meisch's ability to overlay the social and humanitarian issues of modern times with a futuristic approach to their resolution is exceptional." -Midwest Book Review
