BIOGRAPHY
Christopher Tremblay grew up in Franklin, Massachusetts, where he first envisioned becoming a sports writer.   As an avid sports enthusiast, sports always took first priority in his life.   In fact, whenever he was not around, his parents knew that he could be found on an athletic field somewhere in town, especially when there was work to be done around the house.
He began writing for the Country Gazette in its early stages, while attending Dean Junior College in Franklin, where he earned an Associate's Degree in Communication Arts.   While at Dean he was involved with not only the Demon Oracle Newspaper, but was a member of the WGAO radio staff.
Following Dean, Tremblay concluded his college education at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst,where he received a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and English. At UMASS he was a key component of the sports department on the
school's daily newspaper, The Collegiate.
Chris has been part of the Community Newspaper Company's sports department for the past twenty-five years, where he was presented with an award for excellence in sports feature writing.
Chris has also contributed to The Associated Newspapers, the Milford Daily News and has done some sports freelancing for the Woonsocket Call.
Chris published his first childrens book "The Comeback Kid" in 2006, after his son challenged him to write a baseball book 8 years prior.
When Chris is not writing, he enjoys spending time with his family, learning about photography as well as traveling, especially to Walt Disney World, to visit his favorite Disney Character "Grumpy".
Chris resides in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, with his supportive wife, 2 wonderful children, a dog and a cat and continues to write today.
