About the Author

Dan R. Lynch has a degree in graphic design with emphasis on photography from the University of Minnesota Duluth. But before his love of art and writing came a passion for rocks and minerals, developed during his lifetime growing up in his parents' rock shop in Two Harbors, Minnesota. Combining the two aspects of his life seemed a natural choice, and he enjoys researching, writing about, and taking photographs of rocks and minerals. He currently lives in Madison, Wisconsin, with his wife, Julie, where he works as a writer and photographer.

Bob Lynch is a lapidary and jeweler in Two Harbors, Minnesota. Bob has made a name for himself as a highly acclaimed agate polisher and as an expert resource for curious collectors seeking advice. He and his wife keep Agate City Rocks and Gifts open year-round and are the leading source for Lake Superior agates, with more on display and for sale than any other shop in the country.
