M D Mitchell, known by his friends as "Mitch", was born in 1967 and today lives by the ocean in the state of Maine. He served in the Maine Army National Guard as a Combat Engineer, retiring at the rank of Major, and served two tours of duty in Iraq, as well as humanitarian work in Guatemala. He was also a Foreign Service Officer for the U.S. Department of State, serving in Washington D.C., Brazil, and Guyana.

Mitch was also a classroom teacher who taught U.S. History, and English to speakers of other languages in Maine and Japan. He lives with his wife and has two adult children. He is passionate about remaining true to the founding ideals of America, the ones written on paper about a "more perfect union", although, sadly, not always as practiced in reality.
