    About the Author

    I have published three coming-of-age historical novels Brides of the Gauntlet, What the River of the Cherokee Did Not Say, and The Shadow Patriot. In March 2023 I will publish The Suliote Maiden. The series starts with a boy indentured to a fur trader in 1746 Colonial America. Thus far, the third protagonist in this series, finds himself in the Ottoman Empire just before the Greek Revolution. The series will end when I run out of imagination. I am grateful to my readers who have contributed to the success of these works. I am keenly appreciative that by giving their time, the readers give an author the most precious thing they possess.

    These are the bare bones of my curricula vitae. I graduated from UCLA with a bachelors in Spanish taking a circuitous route through the University of Santa Cruz and the University of Barcelona. In an alternate universe where my life has gone wrong, I would devote the time of my long prison sentence to translating Don Quixote into English.

    After falling in love at first sight with a young woman who inexplicably felt the same way, we married and have remained so near three decades. I have two daughters who prove the ugly rumors about millennials wrong. I’ve run my own business wholesaling Spanish language gift items. About five years into my business, I made the decision to structure my days in such a way that I would maximize the time I spent in my car—an easy thing to do in Los Angeles—and listen to books. That is probably the reason that while I’ve avoided insolvency, I never achieved outstanding success in the business world.
