He is retired from the Saudi Arabian Oil Company. Ken is a fifth generation Texan. His great- great-grandfather, George T. Wood, was the second governor of Texas from 1847 to 1849 and was a regimental colonel in the Mexican War. Ken enjoys writing, photography, sail planing, and working with his church. He and his wife live in Lebanon, Ohio so they can more easily dote on their three grandchildren.view less
