Eddie with his dog, Leo Eddie Gresham was born on October 27, 1968 in Springfield, Illinois. As a child, he dreamed of a life as a major league baseball player. A devastating knee injury in high school threatened to end the dream, but Eddie worked hard to make a full recovery, and was able to extend his career to the collegiate level. He hung up the cleats for good after his senior year at Saint Louis University, and depending on which day you ask him, he will tell you that he went undrafted due to either the knee injury or just a blatant lack of talent. Eddie is currently working on his second novel, SUICIDE WATCH, while promoting and marketing FOOTFALLS. 
Gresham graduated with a degree in Computer Science, and went forth into the world of Information Technology. He worked for IBM and Niborex, Inc., before becoming an independent Networking Consultant. After working and traveling in separate states for several years, he and his wife moved to Texas. There, Eddie took some time off from consulting and began writing his first novel, FOOTFALLS. He and his wife, Stacy, currently live in Plano, TX, with their lovable pets.
