His interest in writing brought him to his high school’s newspaper, in which he became the editor. Being exposed to a world of letters at a young age, with his father being an elementary school principal and his mother teaching at the Wyoming School for the Deaf, Box developed an interest in reading despite their family having no bookshelves of any sort.

He belongs in a clan of third-generation Wyomites. Personal Lifeīox was born and raised in Casper, the oldest of his three siblings. His novels have sold more than 3 million copies in the US and has been translated to 27 languages, including German, French, Japanese, Portugese, to name a few. During breaks from his writing, Box is a fisher, hunter, skier and hiker, excelling both in his literary and extra-literary pursuits.

He has served as one of members of the Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo’s Board of Directors. Distinguished for his relentless style of writing, action-packed and gripping stories and his trademark cowboy image, Box is a man of the outdoors, and is a rodeo enthusiast. Box lives with his wife Laurie and three daughters, Becky, Roxanne and Laurie, just outside of Cheyenne.
