I’m author of CHECKMATE! A Sherlock Holmes Novel: also, the Kelly Riggs Mysteries, BLOOD RED STARS, EDGE OF INDIGO, and The SLY SILVER FOX, as well as short stories co-authored with Michael H. Price, DARK BORDERLANDS. Youthful cofounder of a nightclub comedy group, I try to bring a smile to the table. Well-seasoned, well- traveled, I enjoy sunrises with a strong java, sunsets with a fine red wine, and Turner Classic Movies. I’ve been a Child Fund sponsor since 1990. I’m a shy raconteur, but if you ask, I’ll tell you about November 22, Checkpoint Charlie, “teaser trims,” the burlesque shows, Flowers on a Muumuu, The Lake Worth Monster . . . my “brush” with Dr. Stephen Hawking, or how I fell off a mountain and met Muhammad Ali . . . My Motto: “Remember, wherever you go . . . there you are!” JOB TITLE GOES HERE
