Studied creative writing and many English courses in college. Read the classics; Hemingway, Fitzgerald, the Beats... Kerouac, Ginsberg, etc. I'm an "old movie" buff which is why I began writing screenplays.

Had one novel published... so far. Wrote two more novels and three screenplays. Working on fourth novel. Placed work with agent. Was invited to Germany in 1996 to speak on the subject matter of novel. Had many radio and TV interviews, reviews, magazine articles discussing the book.
