About MeFred Eugene Ray (1949-) was born and grew up in Omaha, NE. In 1972, he graduated with a B.S. in geology from the University of Nebraska, minoring in mathematics, chemistry and English. He went on to graduate studies at the University of Oklahoma and, in 1975, began a very rewarding career in the petroleum business, working first as an exploration geologist and then as a manager and executive on domestic and international operations. He retired from Occidental Petroleum in 2001 after serving that corporation as its worldwide Director of Exploration. Since then, he has pursued a lifelong interest in studying ancient Greek combat. Writing from his home in Bakersfield, CA, he seeks to combine the interpretive techniques of physical science with a wide array of data from both classical and modern literature toward exploring the practical realities of warfare in ancient Greece. |
