I was an English major in college, and I love literature.  I admire Fitzgerald, Poe, Hemingway, Shakespeare, Camus, and modern pIaywrights. I grew up an Italian American Catholic, and I like to explore those roots.  I am a big movie fan, with my favorite films being The Godfather, Casablanca, The Graduate, Inherit the Wind, Julia, 3 Days of the Condor, The Silence of the Lambs, and The Lion in Winter, among others.  I also love mysteries, whether they are films or books.  My sense of humor runs from the lightness of When Harry met Sally to the Dexter TV series.
