Gib Kerr is a businessman, historian, writer, commentator, and patriot from Flyover Country whose diverse background provides him with a unique, well-rounded perspective on current and future events.

Guided by the notion that the past is prologue, Kerr’s writing explores history and how history not only shapes the modern landscape, but also offers clues about what lies ahead. Or as Mark Twain reportedly said, “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.” Kerr is particularly interested in the American Revolution and the Civil War—along with the frightening parallels between those times and the growing tensions in 21st century America.

A published author of political fiction, Kerr artfully weaves history into his writing. Citing examples of impactful fiction such as Uncle Tom’s Cabin, 1984, and The Gulag Archipelago, Kerr believes that fiction is often the best way to illuminate the truth. His novel States of Rebellion, The Rise and Fall of the Ocasio-Cortez Administration, imagines a future constitutional crisis in America, where red state patriots rise up against a modern-day domestic axis of evil consisting of Big Tech, the Deep State, and Marxists.

Kerr is a graduate of Washington & Lee University (BA) and the University of Virginia (MBA). He is the father of six children and the grandfather of five (and counting). He and his wife live in Kansas City, Missouri.
