    Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1954, I am fortunate to have come of age in the 1960s in a New York that is all but forgotten now, a mostly Italian-Irish working-class neighborhood. This upbringing has fueled much of my writing, in particular my early work. After having written several historical novels focused on English and Italian history, a travel book about my hitchhiking experiences in the 1970s and a teaching book (I taught drama and directed plays for many years), I have returned to my roots and am now at work on my 7th book, a novel which takes place in "old" New York, 1964-1966.
