John Lewis

John E. Lewis is the nom de plume of one of the Eastern Shore’s most passionate native sons. A love for the land of his youth comes through with great sincerity in his numerous writings. He credits his wisdom, faith and courage of his extended family for much of his adult success.

Mr. Lewis is an international, award-winning author with eight books and countless short stories and articles to his credit. After graduating from Cambridge University, and a stint as an intelligence officer in the Air Force, he worked as a field archaeologist in the Near East and Central America.

For the past eighteen years, Mr. Lewis has been a publisher of scholarly books with over 400 bearing imprints. He is now the president of an American publishing company and a consultant to the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC.
