Nathan Torkington has never climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. He adamantly maintains
that he was nowhere near the grassy knoll. He has never mustered superhuman
strength to lift a burning trolleycar to free a trapped child, and is yet to taste human
flesh. Nat has never served as a mercenary in the Congo, line-danced, run away to
join the circus, spent a year with the pygmies, finished the Death By Chocolate, or
been miraculously saved when his cigarillo case stopped the bullet.
Nat is not American, though he is learning the language. He is from Ti Point, New
Zealand. People from Ti Point don’t do these things. They grow up on fishing boats
and say things like ‘‘She’ll be right, mate.’’ Nat did. He works as an editor for
O’Reilly, selects content for the Open Source Convention, is project manager for Perl
6, and sits on the board of The Perl Foundation. He lives in Colorado and New
Zealand with his wife, Jenine, and their children, William and Aurelia. His hobbies
are bluegrass music and Perl.
