David BacqueWith a certificate in Creative Writing from the University of Toronto's School of Continuing Studies, David Bacque actually began writing in the hopes that learning more about character development and storytelling would help improve his acting skill. While effective in that regard, it also started him down a new creative path that he hadn't expected.

As the characters of Alton and Edouard came to life, developing voices of their own, David realised he had a story to tell that could speak to a wide audience, dealing with important issues like racial equality and responsibility. These connections bind us all together in an intricate web of life, utterly dependent on each other and on the environment, which we need to start nurturing before it's too late.

David currently lives with his wife in Toronto, Ontario. They have two sons and two grandchildren.
