Theo Bradley grew up on a small farm in Northern Ontario, Canada. His days were full of fields, fences, chores and chickens. Weekend evenings were big kitchen parties with guitars, fiddles and laughter, but week nights were crickets and reading in bed, pleading with Mom to stay up for one more hour to finish the book.
At fifteen he left home and hit the road with a Quarter Horse Games team from a nearby town. They landed in the smokey mountains of South Carolina. In a few short months he had his own apartment, car and a job exercising race horses on Fairview Farms.
He returned to his home town a couple of years later to finish high school, and took a part time job writing for the local paper. The philosophy department at the University of Windsor would become his new home for the next few years after high school. Then adventure beckoned one again.
Many years in the music business culminated in co writing seven albums for major record labels, a hit song in Germany on BMG and countless production and writing credits for independent artists.
Theo then returned to his hometown where he accepted a job as the Manager of Arts and Culture and operated a century old live theatre for nine years.
His penchant for adventure and new experience never left him. He dabbled in motorcycle drag racing, skydiving, and alpine skiing. His latest challenge and the subject of his book Vegas Called, They Want Their Money Back, is card counting. His future plans include writing fiction which implicitly chronicle his exciting adventures and explore the wisdom offered by saying "absolutely" to life.
