About the Author

Tom Weber was born at Boise, Idaho, in 1946. He received a bachelors degree in Political Science from Brigham Young University in 1970 and a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Utah in 1973. Through the years he has worked for a number of governmental agencies, including the Utah State Insurance Fund and the United States Tariff Commission. While growing up in southern Idaho, Mr. Weber accompanied his father on many of his house calls. He resides at Salt Lake City. “As I began to earnestly research my father's life,” recalls the author, “and caught a glimpse of his enormous achievement, I sensed my unworthiness to search further. I was treading on holy ground. It was like entering a sacred shrine and involuntarily dropping to one’s knees in awe. Still, I determined to stay the course despite my weakness since no one else was likely to ever do so.” The author can be reached at tomweber7@yahoo.com or at P.O. Box 1321, West Jordan, UT 84084.
