Bishop, Robert Martin: - Life as "Pastor's kid" in 1960's Bristol, Connecticut immersed Robert Martin Bishop in theology. The divisions that existed between the churches in that town, such as nuns from the Catholic Church being forbidden by their priests to walk on the sidewalk in front of the Lutheran Church across the street, shaped his thinking about the vast differences that can exist, even between similar faiths. This led him to ponder the integration and separation that is inherent in the story of the Angels and Satan. Bishop was a prolific writer in college, penning short stories and poems in his free time. It was then that the story of Jetebais began to form in his mind. After retiring from Sales and Management, then retiring from teaching High School, he has been able to devote himself to writing.
