Richard Bach

Richard Bach David is an American author born in 1936. He finished his studies in Long Beach in 1955. Soon after he finished school he joined the navy and the National guard program. Also, he became a pilot in the Fighter Squadron USAF.

After being a part of the army he started his writing career and his first three books were about flying a plane and they were a reflection of his love towards planes. They were named "Stranger to the ground, Biplane" and "Nothing by chance".

His book Jonathan Livingstone Seagull was published in 1970 and made him famous.
