Thomas N. Tabback

Thomas Tabback was born in North Carolina while his father was stationed with the Army at Fort Bragg. Later, his parents moved to Arizona where he grew up and discovered his passion for writing at an early age. When he was 12, he wrote his first short story and never put down the pen.

After carving out a successful 11-year career in the pharmacy healthcare industry, Tabback walked away from corporate life to realize his life-long dream. With his debut novel, Things Forgotten, Tabback ambitiously tells a story centered over 3200 years ago, the period of the Israelite Conquest of Canaan. It is a tale of the timeless struggle between good and evil, and the parallels between the lives of ancient peoples and those of us today. Together with his passion for ancient and biblical history, these are the themes which have shaped Tabback as a writer over the last two decades. His writing style is steeped in rich history and the essence of the human spirit, qualities that will surely linger with his readers.

In December 2008, Tabback also completed writing Joe The Plumber - Fighting for the American Dream. Tabback began his collaboration with Joe shortly after the third and final 2008 Presidential Debate. He witnessed, firsthand, the perpetual media blitz, the revelation of the Ohio State illegal violation of Joe's privacy, his meeting with Sarah Palin, and his ride aboard John McCain's Straight Talk Express. Together with his profoundly penetrating writing style and his eyewitness perspective, Tabback vividly captures today's Middle American struggle to realize the American Dream through Joe's personal hard lessons and spirit of perseverance.

Today, amidst his work on his sequel to Things Forgotten, titled Rebellion, Tabback tours the country giving speeches to crowds both large and small about the dangers of the new government monarchy in America, what we can learn from biblical history and what WE THE PEOPLE must do to preserve the American Dream.

As often as they can, Tabback, his wife of 13 years and their four children call the beautiful Hill Country of Austin, Texas home.
