Ray Anselmo was born in San Francisco on December 9, 1969, and grew up in the Sacramento, CA area. Currently he lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico. At heart, Ray is a storyteller - sometimes to the chagrin of people who wish he would shut up once in a while - and has found that writing is a socially acceptable way to be himself.
