Marc Sercomb was born in Salinas, California. He grew up in Southern California and attended California State University, Northridge, where he studied Journalism and English Literature. He currently resides in the foothills of Los Angeles with his wife, Robin. He has been a teacher for 23 years.

He wanted to write a book about the miraculous resilience of the human spirit and the unexpected kindness of strangers and enemies during dark and dangerous times. Of "Picasso’s Motorcycle" he says, “This story kind of haunted me for a while. That’s how I knew I had to write it.”

If you liked "The Book Thief" or "The Boy In The Striped Pajamas," you'll like this book.
