The Road Within - About the Author

Sean O'Reilly is a former seminarian, stockbroker, and prison instructor who lives in Arizona with his wife, Brenda, and their four boys. He's had a life-long interest in consciousness and theology, and is at work on a book that makes the proposition that classic Greek, Roman, and Christian moral philosophies, allied with post-quantum physics, form the building blocks of a new ethics and psychology. Widely traveled, Sean is editor-at-large and director of international sales for Travelers' Tales.

James O'Reilly, president and publisher of Travelers Tales, wrote mystery serials before becoming a travel writer in the early 1980s. In 1985 he and coauthor Larry Habegger began a syndicated newspaper column, "World Travel Watch," which still appears monthly throughout the USA. He's visited more than 40 countries, along the way meditating with monks in Tibet, participating in West African voodoo rituals, and hanging out the laundry with the nuns in Florence. He travels extensively with his wife, Wenda, and their three daughters. They live in Palo Alto, California, when they're not in Leavenworth, Washington.

Tim O'Reilly is the founder and president of O'Reilly & Associates, a company that is recognized worldwide for innovations in publishing, software, and the Internet. Before founding his company, Tim taught with the late George Simon, a pioneering researcher in altered states of consciousness, at Esalen and other centers around the U.S., and after his death in 1973, was the editor and publisher of his journals. Tim lives with his wife Christina and their two daughters in Sebastapol, California.
