Biographical / Historical
David Patneaude was born January 2, 1944, in St. Paul, Minnesota. He now lives in Woodinville, Washington. He made his name as a children's and young adult book author with creepy, suspenseful tales with books like his first novel Someone was Watching. With Thin Wood Walls, published in 2004, he branches out into a new genre: historical fiction. The book follows Japanese-American boy Joe Handa, as his family tries to cope with prejudice against people of Japanese ancestry during World War II.
