ROBERTO SCRIBNER

Roberto Scribner is a Brazilian-American YA fantasy author who grew up in Brooklyn after moving from Brasilia, Brazil at age eight. He is a husband and a stay-at-home dad to his children and his rescue dog, Athena.

Roberto graduated from Wesleyan University in CT with degrees in Philosophy and Government and went on to earn multiple Master's degrees. He is a retired officer of Marines with five combat deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. When he isn’t writing or running with Athena in the Quantico Highlands, he hikes, bikes, kayaks, and practices Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Roberto’s experiences in combat and living abroad inspire him to write stories that explore love between the traumatized, the power of found families, the heroism of the damned, and the meaning of hope in a time when that feeling is in short supply.​
