Michael Paul Hurd was born in Michigan in 1959. He is the son of Paul S. Hurd and Carolyn J. Hurd (both deceased). Married to his wife, Sandy, since 1980, they have two sons and three grandchildren; however, their eldest son, Adam, passed away from cancer in 2010.
During his formative years, Michael Hurd lived in Michigan, Virginia, and New Hampshire. He graduated from Hopkinton High School, Contoocook, NH, in 1977.
Hurd is a veteran of the United States Air Force, serving from 1978 until 1992, and was Honorably Discharged as a Technical Sergeant. While on active duty, he earned a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Maryland/European Division during an assignment to England. After discharge, he was employed for another 26 years by the United States Government as a civilian and retired in 2018 along with his wife. It is during this time that Hurd developed a love for the written word and the deep research that was needed to author first book, "Lineage." The "Lineage" series was inspired in part by Sara Donati's "Wilderness" series and the many works of James Michener.
The original “Lineage: A Novel” was constructed so that each of the chapters could be spun off into a full-length book.
Michael Hurd is an avid fisherman, has hiked nearly 100 miles of the Appalachian Trail in four states, and is a slow-but-steady road bicyclist. The Hurds currently reside in Maryland, within 10 miles of all three grandchildren. They travel extensively and are huge fans of the Disney Cruise Line.

Marcus Harris and Sean Hagerty served together in the United States Navy. After retirement, their paths crossed once again in northwestern Ohio near the site of the Battle of Lake Erie, which made Oliver Hazard Perry famous. During underwater salvage operations a few days before a commemorative event and re-enactment, the Navy buddies retrieved cannonballs from the 1813 battle that had been uncovered from the silt following a severe late-summer storm the week before. The morning of the commemoration, September 10, 2017, dawned clear and calm – much like the conditions 204 years earlier. Harris, as a re-enactor and docent, was dressed as an Ordinary Seaman from 1813, stacking 204 cannonballs into a four-sided pyramid on the South Bass Island green near where Perry's fleet sailed north to do battle against the British. With one remaining cannonball for the apex of the pyramid, a sudden turn of events changed Marcus Harris's life forever
