Jon Konrath

Jonathan "Jon" Robert Konrath (b. January 20, 1971, Grand Forks AFB, North Dakota) lived in Bloomington from 1989 through 1995. He went to Indiana University during the 1989-1990 school year, and from 1991-1995, except for 1990-91, when he attended IUSB. He wrote a book about experiences in Bloomington called Summer Rain. He also created a print and website glossary called The NecroKonicon. It is full of information about his personal life including a lot of entries for things in Bloomington and Indiana. The NecroKonicon is actually one of the influences behind the creation of Bloomingpedia.

While in Bloomington, he edited a Death Metal zine called Xenocide that he started when DJing at WQAX. One of the contributing writers who mailed him record reviews was Adam Gadahn, who later became an Al-Qaeda member and is now on the FBI's ten most wanted list.

He earned a degree in General Studies and worked for UCS. After graduation, he worked as a technical writer in Seattle, New York City, Denver, Los Angeles, and Oakland.

He lived in the following places in Bloomington:

• Collins-Edmundson 208 (1989-1990)
• 414-416 South Mitchell (1991-1993)
• Colonial Crest #144 (1993-1994)
• 1005 W. 6th with Steve Simms and Matt Liggett (1994-1995)
