Stephen V. Rice
Stephen V. Rice, Ph.D., hails from Detroit, Michigan, and lives in Collierville, Tennessee. During his childhood he pored over statistics in the baseball encyclopedia and wondered about the players. The numbers don’t say much about the players; they don’t tell us who they were or what they were like. Now he writes biographies for the SABR BioProject, to help tell their stories. In his day job, he is a software architect in the Computational Biology department at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis.
