Tom Bodett

Tom Bodett may be best known as the voice of Motel 6. But he certainly has more to say than just, �We�ll leave the light on for you.�

In 1976 Tom moved to Homer, Alaska. Since then he has made a career of writing stories about life in a small town in coastal Alaska; his books include The End of the Road and The Last Garage on Clear Shot. His new book is Norman Tuttle on the Last Frontier. It's about the struggles of a teenager to find his way through the changes of life.

Tom is a former NPR commentator, and host of a nationally-broadcast radio show. He now splits his time between Homer and Dummerston, Vermont
