White, Richard C.

Rich made his first professional sale in 1975 when he sold a sports article to the Hallsville (MO) Top. Over the next several years, he became the sports editor, and wrote articles and editorials for the paper. He was a sports reporter at the University of Central Missouri’s radio station where he wrote/edited on-air copy and did interviews with local schools sports teams.

After college, Rich joined the United States Army, where he was stationed in such exotic locations as Waynesville, MO, Ayer, MA, El Paso, TX, Clarksville, TN, San Angelo, TX, Sierra Vista, AZ, and Ft. Meade, MD. (Although, if you push, he will admit that the two tours to Monterey, CA weren’t really hardship tours.)  After a number of years, Rich left the Army  in 1999 and joined a defense contractor in Annapolis Junction, MD, where he recently retired to become a full-time house husband and writer.

While still in the service, Rich sold his first comic script to StarWarp Concepts and then went on to create his own small press company, Nightwolf Graphics. However, launching a new company in the middle of the “Great Black and White Implosion” was probably not the best of timing. Still, his two comic series, Troubleshooters, Incorporated and Chronicles of the Sea Dragon have been released as e-comics by StarWarp Concepts and new comic endeavors lurk on the horizon.
