James BeauSeigneur was born in Waltham, Massachusetts in 1953. At age six, he became interested in Christian eschatology. He served in the United States Army from 1976 to 1981, being assigned as a National Security Agency intelligence analyst. He ran in 1980 for the United States Congress as the Republican nominee against Al Gore, but left politics for a more stable family life. He wrote in the technical and fiction sector for regular income and creativity. His religious awakening started in the 1970s with the Jesus freak movement, and he writes in hopes of attracting non-Christian readers.
He has written numerous newspaper and magazine articles, including Military Avionics in 1985 and Strategic Defense the following year. He has also written lyrics for published songs. He is now a writing consultant to the U.S. government and is currently consulting with several Fortune 500 companies in support of their marketing efforts to government customers as well as working on a biography collection.
