Originally from New Jersey, Neil A. Cohen has spent the past 15 years working for a Washington, DC based defense firm with a focus on counter-WMD, mass casualty, civil unrest and terrorism response. He interacts regularly with military leaders and scientists from governments both foreign and domestic. As a lifelong fan of zombies and apocalyptic literature and films, he has often had discussions with his clients about how a true zombie pandemic could come about and how it would be managed. The author was amazed at how many within the military and first responder community had put serious consideration into this scenario and created actual plans on how they would respond. While unlikely, nothing is in this book is impossible. Neil has been writing articles and appearing as a public speaker for more than 25 years and has always added his dark sense of humor to his material. Neil currently lives outside of Washington, D.C. with his wife Vicki, two daughters Sasha and Hannah.
