     Wayne Harris-Wyrick shares his life with his wife, son, daughter, two dogs, three cats, and two birds. Wayne, the retired Director and Staff Astronomer of the Kirkpatrick Planetarium and Science Museum Oklahoma, writes a monthly astronomy column and a science-related blog for the museum.
     After 40 years at the Planetarium, Wayne retired to become a full-time children’s book author and later joined the staff of 4RV Publishing as both the Non-Fiction and Tweens & Teens imprints editor. Wayne has been writing a monthly astronomy column for The Oklahoman since 1984, and has published a dozen astronomy and science fiction articles or short stories in various national publications. Wayne also offers editing services to novice authors. His books look at the universe of a child from a broad, Earth-and-people-loving perspective.
