If you have never read a Tim Dorsey novel, you are truly missing out.

You’ll have the chance to meet him at the Upper Tampa Bay Regional Library this month. That branch will host the Friends of the Library Board Meeting featuring author Tim Dorsey on Tuesday, September 11 at 7 pm at the Upper Tampa Bay Regional Library, 11211 Countryway Blvd.

Dorsey graduated from Auburn University in 1983 with a B.S. in Transportation. While at Auburn, he was editor of the student Newspaper, The Plainsman. He joined The Tampa Tribune in 1987 as a general assignment reporter. He also worked as a political reporter in the Tribune’s Tallahassee bureau and a copy desk editor. From 1994-1999, he was the Tribune’s night metro editor and night news coordinator. He left the paper in August of 1999 and has since written nine novels published in several languages: Florida Roadkill, Hammerhead Ranch Motel, Orange Crush, Triggerfish Twist, The Stingray Shuffle, Cadillac Beach, Torpedo Juice, The Big Bamboo, and Hurricane Punch.

His tenth book, Atomic Lobster, will be released in early 2008.
