Mitch Fairchild
Teacher, Educator, and Writer in Round Rock, Texas
Mitch Fairchild was born and raised in the small Central Texas town of Luling. As a child, his writing and cartooning abilities were seen by his teachers as wonderful, joyous, incredible and totally awesome (OK…maybe it was just his mom thought those things). It didn’t take long for the future Pulitzer Prize winning author/cartoonist (way, way, way in the future) to gain acclaim at the college level for his writing. While in college studying Journalism, he was approached by many news agencies to write articles for their publications (OK…he applied for a job writing obituaries once). Instead, Mitch changed his major to psychology in hope of discovering what makes women nag and what makes men not want to use a map (or put the toilet seat down). It didn't take long for the education field to come a calling. Mitch began teaching, got his Masters in Education Administration, and is currently working on his Doctorate in Educational Leadership (EdD)
Mitch lives in Round Rock, Texas with his beautiful wife Courtney and their two lovely daughters, Carly and Cassidy.
