Robert Anstey
Born in Brooklyn, NY, I packed up and left the city in search of adventure at the age of nineteen. Spent some time wandering the country just to lead the "hippie life." Hey, it was the seventies. Landed in Austin, Texas near the end of 1979, and fell in love with the place. No place in the world quite like Austin. I settled in and got a real job and went to school at night, but I also found some of those adventures I was looking for. I had a big motorcycle I would race until I crashed it all up, so I quit doing that. I did everything from scuba diving to skydiving to flying a plane and racing cars. Life is good. Now I live a relatively quiet life in a small town. Had 2 wonderful sons along the way, have a great girlfriend, and terrific frie

Suzanne Heywood
I grew up sailing around the world on a boat. My father set sail from England in 1976 on the Schooner Wavewalker with my brother, mother and me on board for what was supposed to be a three-year voyage but turned out to be a decade-long trip. While this meant that I saw a huge amount of our planet (though generally only the parts that are near sea level), it also meant that I was isolated as a child and struggled to get any formal education. Somehow, I managed to teach myself by correspondence and won a place to study at university. My book "Wavewalker" tells this story. It is both an adventure story and a coming-of-age story in a world that appeared idyllic but in reality was hugely challenging.
