Christopher Shaw Myers grew up listening to stories told by his colorful uncle, Robert Shaw, and other family members. Born and raised in Pennsylvania, he attended Trinity College, where he majored in English literature and mathematics, and Columbia University, where he received a master’s degree in business administration.
