Rusty Young is the author of the international bestsellers MARCHING POWDER and COLOMBIANO. Voted by his colleagues at law school as "the most likely to end up in prison", he spent 4 months voluntarily living in Bolivia's San Pedro Prison to research his first book, MARCHING POWDER, written with Tanzanian-born UK inmate, Thomas McFadden. MARCHING POWDER is due to be made into a major Hollywood film. Rusty then moved to Colombia for 7 years, working in counter-terrorism for the US government, driving a bulletproof car and assisting in anti-kidnapping efforts. His interviews with child soldiers from the FARC and Paramilitaries formed the basis of his next book, COLOMBIANO. He recently interviewed various "legends" of the drug trade, including George Jung (played by Johnny Depp in "Blow") and Pablo Escobar's chief assassin, for the award-winning documentary WILDLANDS, directed by Colin Offhand.
