Authors Judy Hemenway and Paul Mila enjoy diving ocean waters around the world and have collectively logged over 2,000 dives. Their wide-ranging experiences inspired them to share their passion with others. When not diving, Paul writes thriller/adventure novels, works at a local dive shop, and coaches tennis. Judy, having retired, works at only what catches her fancy: she cultivates California native plants, tends her two desert tortoises, and plots when and where she will travel next.
