His father conducted the pit orchestra for musicals and his mother was a theatrical costume designer. He was starstruck at the age of five when his parents took him backstage to meet John Raitt after a performance of Carousel. At that moment Jason pledged to make a life on the stage. By age eight he was lip-syncing The Music Man in his grandparents\u2019 living room. At nine, his father introduced him to Marcel Marceau, who taught him mime. At the age of ten he got his first professional theater job building sets at the Tenthouse Theater in Highland Park, Illinois. At 11 he got his FCC radio operating license and had his own radio show. He studied English Literature at Rutgers College and worked as an actor in New York City. When he wasn\u2019t working or auditioning he loved to tour the magic shops in midtown Manhattan to schmooze with the old-time magicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason had a 45 year career in human resources. He became an HR executive in Silicon Valley doing three startups including his own company, which he ran for 11 years as CEO. He worked as an executive at Polycom, Informatica Corporation and Sony Playstation. He retired as Vice President of Organization Effectiveness and began to write fiction full time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason enjoys travel and avidly attends theater, cabaret and music performances all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He lives with his husband, Rob, in the California desert.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jason Ollander-Krane grew up in a theatrical home.
