Meet Author Donald E. Starkey. He was born in Ohio after World War II. Donald is a retired National Park Service Law Enforcement Ranger. That real-world experience is his foundation. He and his wife are lifelong outdoors people. They volunteered for years as campground hosts after retiring.

Donald used to write, then life got busy. Now he is back with his debut novel, The Law Enforcement Ranger (2025). His fiction pulls from real events he saw or knew. These are authentic stories of justice and emotional truth. He combines law enforcement realism with human drama. Donald’s goal is simple: to share immersive and resonant stories with readers worldwide.
