He "went west" to New Mexico, where he worked as a newspaper editor, reporter, photographer and freelance writer. Tracy left journalism for a public service career as a technical writer for the state of New Mexico.
Tracy has had life-long passions for theology, world religions and history. After many years of wandering in the desert of religious uncertainty, Tracy, the son of a Presbyterian minister, joined the Roman Catholic Church in 1988. "And that," he says, "has made all the difference." For 10 years, Tracy served as a volunteer teacher for the religious education program at Santa Maria de la Paz Catholic Community in Santa Fe. He shared his love of the Church with adults and, with his wife Claire, co-taught elementary and junior high classes.
Having raised a son and a daughter, he and Claire still live in Santa Fe. Reading, prayer and writing remain at the heart of Tracy's life.view less
