| Tim was born the fifth of
seven children in a small central Massachusetts mill town. He lived
for a time in both New Hampshire and Maine. After graduating high
school Tim headed off to college in the North Country of northern
Wisconsin. He was in the area for nearly five years and still considers
it his second home. It was while there that he first developed his
skills as a writer and performer. After graduating college with a
degree in Biology Tim hit the road as a musician throughout the northeast
and Midwest. He toured extensively for several years playing in coffeehouses,
at colleges and folk festivals throughout the region.
In the early 80’s Tim moved to Texas for what he thought
would be a temporary stay in the Lone Star State. He met his wife
Wynter while working part time as a teacher for the Houston school
district as he continued to pursue music, now in Texas and surrounding
areas. During this time Tim found another artistic outlet working
in wood and designing homes. In 1983 he and Wynter founded Red Suspenders
Timber Frames, Inc which still designs and crafts amazing timber
framed structures around the country. Tim dropped out of music entirely
in 1986 to work with his company. The demands of running a growing
company did not allow him the time performing and writing require.
In November 2001 and again in November 2003 Tim and Wynter traveled
to the Peoples’ Republic of China to bring home their daughters
Marit and Mattie.
In 2000 Tim decided it was time to get back into music and he began
work on the long delayed first album of his music. Winds of Change
took nearly three years to complete and was released to excellent
listener reviews in January 2004. It has been selling briskly on-line
and has recorded sales throughout the US and Canada as well as in
Europe.

reviews it has received.
Tim is presently continuing his work with his company while performing
in venues throughout Texas. He plans to tour more extensively in
the future. He lives with his wife Wynter and their daughters Marit
and Mattie on a small farm near Nacogdoches, Texas in a house he
designed and built.
A second album is in the works.
