Jones, Todd E.

Todd Jones was born November 26, 1962 in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. In 1991, he arrived in Las Vegas, Nevada to become a professor of philosophy at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. He immediately liked the John S. Park neighborhood, where he had friends/members of a poetry group and other professors. He was attracted to the vintage esthetics and the feel of streets lined with large trees. It was a contrast with the explosions of homes being built in the city during the 1990s. Jones knew if ever bought a house, it would be there. In 2000, he did.
