Max Griffin is the pen name of a mathematician and academic. He has retired from his positions at a major university in the Southwest. He is the proud parent of a daughter who is a librarian, and the grandparent to two beautiful little boys. Max is blessed to be in a long-term relationship with his life partner, Mr. Gene, who is an expert knitter.

The two humans in Max’s household are the pets of a pair of Russian Blue cats named Boris and Natasha. They graciously let the humans live in their home in return for food and occasional petting. Oh, and there’s that litter box thing they do, too.
