J.
Max Taylor, USA (ret.) “was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in Feb 1948. He was
an only child and led a normal life through high school. He received his draft
notice in late 1987. When he reported to the draft processing center he went
through all the normal physical and intellectual testing that every draftee
went through. At the end of all the testing, he was taken aside and offered a
special position in military intelligence. If he accepted, he would have a
three year commitment to the U.S. Army. He accepted the offer, and in doing so
he changed the course of his life. He was trained in special intelligence
operations activities, attached to special duty with another organization, and
was sent to Korea as an intelligence editor. From this point forward, till
1976, his book, Inside the World of Mirrors tells the compelling story of a
world that very few people knew existed. He was medically retired in late 1976.
From
that time on he has lived in a world of recurring nightmares. The memories of
the bad things that happened were never forgotten. He returns every night to
the horror and terror that he had experienced. At that time there was no name
for his condition. Now it is known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). He
still is under care by the Veterans Administration for these problems to this
day. He went on with his life to become a successful businessman doing business
all around the world. In 2000 an accident aggravated the PTSD. Part of the
Veterans Administration Program he was in was Psychological Counseling. He was
told to write down his experiences, and read them over and over to help deaden
the pain and suffering. "Inside the World of Mirrors" is a result of
this process. Today he lives in Phoenix, Arizona with his wonderful supportive
wife Dorothy.” J. Max Taylor is the author of Inside the World of Mirrors: The
Story of a Shadow Warrior.
