Dr. Mulry is an Englishman. He has previously taught in England, Greece and France, but considers Texas a home away from home. He enjoys writing and fishing and canoeing hill country rivers — though he seldom does all of those things at the same time; and he is a long-time fall-guy in various martial arts. He came to Kerrville in 2007.
