Andrew David King was born in Fremont, California on June 11, 1992.  With a "demanding and insightful voice" poised to issue unprecedented commentaries on both society and our lives as human beings, he has enjoyed writing since middle school and has written poetry, fiction, and non-fiction pieces.  When he's not putting the pen to paper, he enjoys playing guitar and piano, jamming with his band, swimming, doing collage, ranting about the irrational teachers at his school, discussing politics, composing music, searching for the Holy Grail, and observing the world around him with a critical eye.  He has been a winner of the Martin Luther King Jr. Art and Essay Contest for the city of Hayward, California, and his visual art has been on display at the Oakland Museum of California.  He is currently a sophomore at Moreau Catholic High School, where he attends on scholarship, and lives in Hayward with his family.
