Athletics staff member is also a writer
Brian Ullmann’s day job is senior associate athletics director for the University of Maryland. In his spare time, he writes.
He’s completed a book called "Darwin's Race,” about an adventure race in southeast Tibet.
Ullmann says he included a Maryland reference in the story. “The hero of the book --
Conner Michaels -- is a Terp alum, and at one point gives a Terps hat to his
then-girlfriend,” Ullmann says. “Years later, after a tough break-up, he sees her again, and she's wearing the hat.”
Ullmann says his literary agent is the same one who handled “Sweet Redemption,” the Gary Williams book.
