Searching for Margie
What do you get when you raise a foster kid on teenage rebellion and union wages?
A rocket scientist.
Christopher John McKeon
Christopher John McKeon is a father, engineer, inventor, and the developer of video games you've likely used to ignore your own family. He wrote this book to explain his chaotic past to his two sons. He now realizes this was probably a huge mistake and that a simple "the stork brought me" would have been much easier on everyone. Sorry, boys.
In "Searching for Margie," Christopher shares his upbringing from age 7-21, culminating in a scavenger hunt search for his artistic biological mother, Margery Lee McKeon (who took the cover photo).
When he's not writing, Christopher enjoys watching his boys play sports, running ridiculously long distances, and perfecting the ultimate beer and pizza pairing. His goal with this book is simple: to figure out if he was the problem all along. (Spoiler: it's a tie)
