Biography: Henry grew up in a town that most people would describe as BFE. It was a nothing patch of dirt in the state of Kansas that only five thousand people cared to call home. The closest grocery store was thirty miles away and there was only a single stop light that keep people from blowing straight through. The Meyer’s were what most people thought of when picturing the American Dream that was promised to so many in the 1950s. Henry was the oldest, his sister Carly was only two years younger. His mother was a homemaker and his father was a supervisor at the manufacturing company two towns over.

If it hadn’t been for color televisions and the invention of the internet it would have been easy to think they lived in a different era. The whole town seemed to be a few decades behind and no one was real concerned with closing that gap. Everyone was content with the way things were. Everyone except for Henry. From the moment he was born it was like trying to bottle a hurricane. He was walking before he’d learned to crawl and running soon after. He kept his parents on their toes all the way up to the day he left their house. He and everyone else knew that Henry was way too big of a personality to stick around.

Nothing of great significance happened in Henry’s life until he turned fourteen. He started his freshman year of high school, he was playing both varsity football and baseball, and he became a dad. His best friend’s older sister made him feel special. She was a cheerleader and hot and he didn’t want to be a little bitch turning down her sexual advances, so he let it happen. It only happened twice, but like they say, it only takes one time. She told him she was pregnant and said they were going to be a family, but how was a kid supposed to raise a kid? Henry told her he wasn’t ready; he wasn’t entirely sure what that meant, but he knew he couldn’t be in charge of another living things life.

Before he knew it, she’d left town for school, according to her parents. Henry did his best to put that relationship behind him and threw himself into his sports. He continued with both football and baseball, excelling in both to the point he was nationally recognized. He was just as concerned with proving himself academically as he was athletically, so when he graduated with multiple scholarship offers, no one was surprised. He went on to accept a scholarship to play baseball at a university in Iowa. Five short years later Henry was at the University of Chicago studying to become a lawyer.

After graduating 3rd in his class, Henry went on to work as an assistant to Chicago’s District Attorney. He spent five years in that position before meeting Joseph Marston at a coffee shop around the corner from his office. A ten minute conversation turned into a dinner which then turned into a job offer at Marston Morgan Ross. In less than a month, Henry left his job at the Chicago DA office and moved to Rockford, Illinois to become a sophomore associate at Marston Morgan Ross. It didn’t take long for Henry to become a senior associate under the guidance of managing partner Joseph Marston.

Joseph didn’t have a son, so everyone assumed that Henry was being molded to follow in his footsteps. He was doing a pretty grand job of it, becoming known as “The Best Closer in the City” by the time he made senior partner. Henry was at the top of his game both in his career and in his personal life. He lived by the rule that hard work deserves to be rewarded by playing even harder. Nothing was going to stand in his way of taking the world by storm. That was until she showed up and turned his world upside down.

Personality: Henry is persistent, loyal, and, some would say, arrogant, but he prefers confident. He likes to have his fun, but work has always come first to him. If it wasn’t sports it was his school work and now his career. He throws himself completely into each case he takes on, which is one of the reasons he’s so great at what he does. He can be charming and witty as well as blunt, but he’s unapologetic for who he is.

Putin tightens inner circle amid Ukraine conflict

BY HENRY MEYER AND IRINA REZNIK, BLOOMBERG

The ruble's plunge has heightened opposition to Putin's backing of the rebellion in Ukraine among his wealthiest allies, prompting the president to shrink his inner circle from dozens of confidants to a small group of security officials united by their support for the separatists, two longtime associates said.
