John Simon

John Simon is a 53-year-old author and songwriter from Guthrie, Oklahoma. After spending 23 years as an over-the-road trucker, navigating the highways and backroads of America, John was forced to hang up his keys due to health issues. What could have been an ending became a new beginning: he traded the open road for the keyboard and turned his wealth of life experience into stories and songs.
