Tony Padegimas is, among many other things, a free-lance writer who spends as much time as possible in his hammock slung in some random part of a national forest. His wife, two children, and two dogs join him on occasion, but report mixed feelings about whether these endeavors are really worthwhile. The cats have no doubts: they prefer to remain at home in Phoenix.

In addition to wanderings in the wilderness, he also chronicles sports, fitness, historical curiosities, technical theatre (which is also his day job), the inside guts of buildings and other random topics by assignment. His work has appeared in numerous local and regional magazines and a handful of national publications. His book, Day and Overnight Hikes in the Tonto National Forest, is available from Menasha Ridge Press.

He is also "translating" the Autobiography of Jack the Giant Killer, among other tales of the mythic past or the unknown future.
