Michael J TravisMichael Travis first fell in love with beer while attending the University of New Hampshire in the early 1980s. He graduated with a BA in economics, studying important supply and demand theories, learning to take advantage of heavily inventoried, inepensive beer brands perfect to quench a college kid's thirst. Michael worked in corporate retail for years, starting with Target in Minneapolis, birthplace of both of his daughters. He learned to appreciate the art and effort put into gourmet food, exquisite wine and great craft beer during his career spent primarily with Payless ShoeSource in Topeka, Kansas. Michael celebrates the spiral-bound journal he wrote, capturing a 1972 family summer road trip to the West Coast and back, by seeing Celebrating Kansas Breweries: People, Places & Stories be published fifty years later.
