  2.                                 ABOUT THE AUTHOR
  3.           
  4.           Dean Charron, who was born in Springfield, Massachusetts in
  5.           1955, began his writing career in 1988 when he founded a
  6.           business that developed employment policies and procedures
  7.           for small- to medium⌐size companies. During a two-year
  8.           period, Dean, a certified legal assistant, developed policy
  9.           manuals for over 25 employers, including companies such as
  10.           ComputerLand and PIP.
  11.           
  12.           Also, in conjunction with his business, Dean did extensive
  13.           legal research while writing two books on employment law:
  14.           "The Employer's Guide to State and Federal Employment Laws"
  15.           and "Avoiding Employee Lawsuits."
  16.           
  17.           In 1990, when his company succumbed to the failing local
  18.           economy, Dean was introduced to the dark side of consumer
  19.           affairs. Finding himself in the throws of financial
  20.           disaster, was forced to research new legal subjects:
  21.           financial crisis management and bankruptcy.
  22.           
  23.           Now, Dean regularly helps financially troubled consumers
  24.           deal with creditors through debt restructuring programs.
  25.           This real world experience helped him write three
  26.           consumer-related publications. In 1990, he wrote "The
  27.           Attorney's Bankruptcy Guide; in 1991, he wrote The Financial
  28.           Problem Solver, a 105-page guide to consumer-related issues.
  29.           
  30.           While writing "The Financial Problem Solver," Dean realized
  31.           that consumers lacked ready access to understandable
  32.           information about credit cards. So, in 1992, hoping to
  33.           fulfill this need, he wrote "Credit Card Smarts," a 70-page
  34.           guide to credit card ownership.
  35.           
  36.           In his spare time Dean enjoys flying, golf and hiking. Mr.
  37.           Charron lives in Granville, Massachusetts with his wife
  38.           Paula.
