Sherman Miles was born in Virginia, USA. He served in the U.S. Air Force from (1970-1974). In 1973, he was assigned to the headquarters of the Armed Forces Thailand Network located on the Royal Thai Airbase in Korat, Thailand.

Following his discharge from the military, he returned to Thailand during the years (1974-1978) at which time he traveled extensively throughout the Kingdom and neighboring countries in Southeast Asia.

In 2008, after a 25-year career in the securities industry, he retired to the northern city of Chiang Mai, Thailand to study writing and play golf.

Freedom Sex and a Meat Cleaver is Sherman’s first book. He’s currently working on a new novel set in Bangkok in 1980 that follows Pierce Colter as he’s unwittingly lured into working for the Italian mafia’s heroin smuggling ring. This novel, like Freedom, is inspired by actual events.
