Though he is internationally known for his mystery series featuring Navajo detectives Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee, Hillerman is also the author of a number of non-fiction books about his beloved Southwest, including the classic The Great Taos Bank Robbery. Hillerman's professional background includes many years as a journalist and a stint in academia which includes Journalism Department head at the university of New Mexico where he was also a vice president for a time.
