Severe dyslexia kept Blake from reading fluently until he was twelve. Because of this, everyone--including Blake--believed that he would never attend college. So all involved were a bit shocked when ten years later he graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from Yale University. His essays on literary criticism won the English Department's Getts Prize, Curtis Prize, and Mifflin Prize. Trumbull College honored him with the John Spangler Nicholas Scholarship.
Since then Blake has accrued a long list of jobs to support his writing habit: included are high school English teacher, medical writer for UCSF and Stanford, neighborhood airport taxi driver, learning disabled tutor, and JV football coach. Blake is currently a second year medical student at Stanford Medical School.
