జీవిత చరిత్ర
David Tyron "Ty" King was born in 1959 in the sleepy hamlet of Houston, Texas; a town perhaps best known as the birthplace of Beyoncé.
Beyoncé Giselle "Bey" Knowles - an American singer, songwriter, and actress - is perhaps best known as the sister of Solange Knowles.
Solange Piaget "Beyoncé's Sister" Knowles - an American singer, songwriter, and sibling - is perhaps best known for her 2009 single, "Cranes in the Sky."
Cranes - large, long-necked birds of the family Gruidae - are perhaps best known as towering machines used in construction, primarily for lifting.
After an unremarkable childhood and traumatizing onset of puberty, Ty met Michelle Dianne "Tel" Todd in a seventh grade speech class, and the two were married (to each other) in either 1979 or 1980 (depending on which of them you ask).
It was while attending college at the University of Texas (U.T.) that Ty first discovered a passion for writing (which actually started way back in Kindergarten) and a fondness (some might say "an over-fondness") for quotation marks and parentheses (like this " "" ").
After graduating college, Ty and Michelle moved to Los Angeles, California so that Ty might pursue a career writing for television, while Michelle came to question her decision to marry at such a young age.
With the loving and tireless support of his wife, Ty King embarked on a 12-year career writing and producing for a string of television series, beginning with the NBC sit-com "Family Ties" in 1987. Over the next dozen or baker's dozen (depending on which of them you ask) years, he wrote and/or produced and/or developed and/or watched many TV classics; including "Growing Pains", "Newhart", "Empty Nest", "Hearts Afire", and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."
It was while filming a television pilot in Vancouver in 1992 that Ty decided (and Michelle graciously agreed) that he/they would rather raise their two beautiful sons Nicholas and Jonathan (and a third son whose name they couldn't recall and who later turned out to be apocryphal) in the Pacific Northwest (aka, "NOT Hollywood").
Then, some other stuff happened.
And then, some more other stuff happened.
More recently, Ty wrote for several well-received video games and for a while, even worked a night shift at the highly-regarded Toys R' Us in Bellevue [citation needed].
In late 2020 or early 2021 (depending on which of them you ask), Ty wrote what is probably the most annoying middle school chapter book in the history of middle school chapter books, "The Super Secret Stewart Switching Society" by Ty King , for which he shamelessly shills on Twitter and in his various "writer's biographies."
At some point in the future, he will die (probably of something easily preventable) and quickly be forgotten (hopefully, not before selling thousands of copies of "The Super Secret Stewart Switching Society" by Ty King).
But as of this morning, Ty and Michelle and Nicholas and Jonathan continue to live a life of quiet desperation in Mercer Island, Washington.
The End.
(author's note: Michelle King (née Todd) has lived her own incredible life of amazing personal accomplishment, but this isn't her biography)
