A Book Of 50 Of The Author's Favorite Poems.
This book is dedicated to the two people responsible; one an old time hustler from Newark, N.J., who praised a hesitant youth and urged him to keep writing and the other my wife, who praised a hesitant old man and urged him to keep writing…
About The Author (Quote):
“I spent many years in the theater as both an actor and an author. My first exposure to theater was out of high school, where I had a speech and theatre scholarship at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. At the age of 19, I auditioned for my first professional show in Toronto, Canada, a musical called “The Me Nobody Knows.” After it closed a year later, I went to Europe and joined the cast of a French production of another musical, “Double V.” A few months later I found myself in the Danish production of “Hair.” I did “Hair” in several countries around the world, often in foreign languages.
Three years later it was time for a change, so I left the Tasmanian production of “Hair” and headed to London, where I was entreated to start an R&B group by John Worth, a noted producer. Thus, The Majestics were born. Four years and several world tours later, it was back to Canada for a series of TV shows, singing and playing my guitar. Eventually, I returned home to America’s west coast, where I had an unfortunate accident. Unable to play the guitar, I turned to writing. Thus, The Saga of Peter the Woodsman began. Soon my hand was better and I began to write musicals. “The Gramaphone Rag” was performed at Laney College in Oakland, California, later moving to San Francisco’s On Broadway Theater.
I currently live in Northern California with my family.”
