Peer Holm Jørgensen was born 1946 in Denmark. At age 16 he left school to go to sea experiencing the world. His meetings with foreign cultures, religions and social life around the globe, became deeply rooted in him. Nine years later he became cook on the sailing yacht of the owner of MAERSK, before his career turned into HR and Finance/Systems and further to the upcoming IT industry. In the 80s he was a business adviser.

In the 1990s he was managing several European companies and became chairman of a French industrial company. He left France in 1999 to live in southern Italy and moved later to Santiago de Compostela, Galicia spending the Europeans winters in Chile.

In 2000 his first novel Back-Log (Danish) was published. In Må Gud Bevare Amerika (Danish) 2006, he predicts that the Americans would elect themselves a president of black and white origin in 2008. It was followed in 2007 by Den Glemte Massakre (Danish) based on his personal involvement in the 1965 Indonesian tragedy.

In 2009 it was published in Indonesia as The Forgotten Massacre and became his international debut. In 2011 he founded Isotia Writing Company to assist persons to get their personal stories told in public. His only formal education is being a cook.
