My name is Tea Krulos and I’m a freelance writer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I was introduced to the Real Life Super Hero(RLSH) story in late February, 2009. As a lifelong fan of comic books and unusual and unique people and subcultures, I was immediately hooked.
\nI was determined to find a local RLSH if there was one and found The Watchman, a man who dons a red rubber mask, suit, and trenchcoat and patrols the streets of Milwaukee. I had a long, fascinating interview with him in person one night and determined that the short magazine piece I had successfully pitched did not scratch the surface of the story and decided to write a book. After a few months I also established this blog- both the book and the blog are titled Heroes in the Night<\/b>.
\nMy book is based on extensive research, interviewing, and field work. I have traveled to meet RLSH in Minneapolis, Rochester (Minnesota), Brooklyn, Vancouver, Portland, Seattle, San Diego, New Bedford (Massachusetts) , and Washington DC, as well as meeting regularly with the Milwaukee crew.
\nI have been quoted as an expert on the subject in the New York Times<\/i>, Wall Street Journal<\/i>, People<\/i> magazine, Seattle Weekly<\/i>, Scientific American<\/i>, io9.com<\/i>, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel<\/i>, and dozens of other newspapers, magazines, websites around the world. I’ve also made appearances on a dozen radio shows and have been filmed for three different RLSH documentaries.
\nI have written articles on the subject for Milwaukee<\/i> magazine, the Boston Phoenix<\/i>, New York Press<\/i>, Forces of Geek<\/i>, Riverwest Currents<\/i>, and Delayed Gratification<\/i>.
\nHeroes in the Night<\/b> will be available JUNE 2012!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
