I'm the son of two Irish immigrants, who was raised in the Bronx. I was a working actor and musician for the majority of my twenties and thirties. Received a double BA in Theater and Literature from UMASS, later an MA in Education. Tired of the Big Apple and moved to Ashland, Oregon where writing soon became my religion.
Recently, I've summoned the energy to submit my work and have had some success, seven short stories published. And so I continue, writing and living with my wife, Linda in our little mountain town.
