Bryan S. Higby was born in Lowville New York, on May 17th 1974. He was raised in the upstate region of New York State. He was a curious child who hid in closets and cupboards. He graduated middle of his class, from Lowville Academy Central School. Higby suffered a major seizure at the age of eight that removed nearly all his eight year past. He graduated from Jefferson Community College without honors.
Throughout this turbulent time, Higby wrote short stories and finally at seventeen finished his first full-length novel, The House of Light. Higby was held in captivity in upstate New York for a number of years until he broke free and moved to South Carolina. He lived there for over a year. While there, he realized he needed more of an artistic outlet.
He later moved to Potsdam New York, where he acquired a BA in Theatre Arts. Here again Higby expressed a curious behavior. This time it was rising late at night and flushing toilets all over the campus of Potsdam State. He was never caught and graduated with honors!
After graduating from Potsdam State, Higby languished in the town of Potsdam for one year. It was during the summer of 2001 when a theatre colleague contacted him. It concerned a move to Jamestown, New York. It was there in Jamestown that six former college students would form a professional off-off-Broadway theatre company, The Bunbury Theatre Company. It was in this atmosphere of creative freedom that Higby removed the manuscript, The Diary of a Logos, after six years, and began the difficult task of editing it. There will be ten volumes in all, based on writing that Higby typed from the years 1993 through 2001. These ten volumes will answer the mystery posed briefly in The Diary of a Logos, which is; ‘Why were the Logos exiled to Earth, and, who was responsible?’
Higby currently resides in Jamestown New York with his wife Amy and two children, Zoey Madison and Elliot Cooper.
