About Tim Join Tim's Facebook Fan page!
Tim Green says he enjoys writing for kids because it seems to him that only a blink ago, he was a kid... As a boy, tim had two dreams: playing in the NFL and becoming a best-selling author. Both of those dreams have come true. After studying writing in college where he was an All American football player, Tim was drafted in the first round of the NFL draft by the Atlanta Falcons where he was a top defensive player for eight years. While Tim played in the NFL, he also studied law and began his writing career. When he retired from football, Tim had already published his first book and become a lawyer. As well as those two jobs, he began to work as a TV broadcaster for FOX NFL Sunday and other shows like Battlebots, Good Morning America, Court TV, and A Current Affair. After writing more than a dozen books for grown-ups, many of them best-sellers, Tim began a series of best-selling novels for kids set in a world of sports taken from his own experiences as an athlete and a coach. In that time, Tim has spoken to tens of thousands of kids at hundreds of schools across the country about the importance of school and books and the joys and benefits of reading. Tim lives with his wife Illyssa, their five kids, and two dogs in upstate New York where he continues to write as well as coach kids in football, baseball, soccer, and wrestling.
