About the Author
MICHAEL TONELLO grew up in Massachusetts. He traveled the world as a makeup artist and hairdresser until a chance job assignment in Spain proved fateful, and he resettled in Barcelona. Pressed to find a profession that didn’t necessitate working papers, he started a lucrative business on eBay as a reseller of all things Hermès. Michael lives in Barcelona with his partner, Juan.
