Kenneth Jones grew up in San Francisco attending AP Giannini Elementary School, where he met his future wife, Jane. After graduating from San Francisco State University, he became a mailman in the city where he raised three boys. He loves Giants baseball, 49er football, and the Golden State Warriors. He enjoys writing opinion pieces for the SF Chronicle, taking cruises with his wife, golfing with his best friend Rich, and spending time with his children and grandchildren. He still does not own a computer and barely knows how to operate a cell phone, but he will be the first to tell you to "google that" when a question arises that he cannot answer. He has a wide range of musical taste from classic musicals and Stevland Morris to Gordon Lightfoot and the Beatles.
