John Myers Myers

John Myers Myers (January 11, 1906 – October 30, 1988) was an American writer. He is known best for the fantasy novel ''Silverlock'' in which a man with a Master of Business Administration travels through a fantasy land, meeting dozens of characters from myth, legend, and romance for adventure and instruction.
==Life==
Myers was born in Northport, Long Island on January 11, 1906 to John Caldwell Myers and Alice O'Neil McCorry Myers.〔 He was named for his grandfather John Myers, "the extra Myers, sparing me a dynastic 'II' as per race horses, cars, and yachts."〔 Myers and grew up in various places in New York, including New Paltz and NYC. He has stated that he knew from the time he was seven years old that he wanted to be a writer. He attended Bard St. Stephens College and then Middlebury College, but was expelled from the latter for writing unflattering verse about the faculty. He later attended the University of New Mexico to study anthropology, but never completed a degree. After extensive travel through Europe and the United States, Myers worked for the ''New York World'' and ''San Antonio Evening News''. He was also an advertising copywriter. Myers served five years in the U.S. Army during World War II. He and Charlotte Shanahan met while he was stationed at Fort Knox and they were married during 1943.〔 They had two daughters, Anne Caldwell Myers and Celia Myers. During 1948, he relocated to Tempe, Arizona to do research for ''The Last Chance'', and stayed there as he was by that time enamored of the West. While there he worked as editorial writer for the local newspaper.
As of 1984, J.M. and C.S. Myers lived "in the chaparal cock country north and east of Mesa, Arizona, within visiting range of our two daughters". At Arizona State University he had taught writing, conducted a writers conference, and assembled Western Americana for ASU Libraries.〔
Myers died October 30, 1988.
