Chris Bench

I grew up in a world of books with my dad, Curt, showing me the way and that eventually led to many years around the bookstore. I had an amazing college experience at Utah State University (Go Aggies) where I had the opportunity to work in the incredible Special Collections there. I also had a few helpful stints working for Deseret Book in Logan before starting full-time at Benchmark Books in January of 2001.

The best discovery I made in Logan besides a few delicious foods that I still crave (cheese curds from Gossners Foods and anything from Old Grist Mill) was my wife, Wendi. We met at a bonfire during my last semester and were married in 2002. We have two adorable kids, Qhloi (11) and Senator (9). We still love Logan and bonfires.
