About me
I grew up in Astoria, New York and now live in New England. I acquired, and learned to appreciate, the talent of telling stories from my Dad. He seemed to have a life that attracted unusual people, and in turn, unusual things happened to him.
I started creating stories for my own children. After they grew up, I began putting those stories on paper. I loved when I got to a page where I would scare them or tickle them.
Children’s Books
My first book consisted of a picture book “Ninja Babies” conceived while playing with my grandson. Early chapter books for children followed, including a series of five books titled “The Forest Kids”.
Books for Adults
Moving on to science fiction, I wrote “The Cheapest Movie Ever Made”.
Plays for the Stage
Moving onward, I started writing plays for the stage, which have been produced multiple times in New England - including the “Todd Tries Speed Dating” which was a finalist in The Hopkinton Center for the Arts’ short play competition.
Screenplays
I created a short film (3 mins) screenplay and produced it. “The Dinner”.
In the Works…
I am currently working on an autobiography, a musical for the stage, more short plays and another book. So, stay tuned!
