I was born in Brooklyn NY, and through subsequent moves spent the majority of my formative years in New Rochelle, NY (Westchester County). I attended the Philadelphia Textile Institute in Germantown, PA and have always been a prolific reader. I was first introduced to the joy of writing, and encouraged to pursue it, by my college English Professor. Subsequently I wrote for my college newspaper, and later in business prepared advertising copy for local and national printed media. I am currently a self-employed real estate appraiser. I am married and live with my wife in southeastern North Carolina. My first work of fiction, The Lethal Fisherman, employs some of what I experienced on a first hand basis, in earlier travels to South America and Cuba, as well as the use of my current location for the geographical background. The story is presented in a true to life format and blends three individual yet related stories. These will converge to a powerful culmination. This novel is the first of a trilogy.

None yet, as this is my debut novel.
