I'm just another expat writer from the USA, living in Madrid since 1991.

​

I was born on Long Island, New York, and raised there and in Lexington, Massachusetts, where the "shot heard round the world" was fired, kickstarting the American Revolution and guaranteeing tourists.

​

I have a BA in Theater from tiny, now sadly defunct Marlboro College in southern Vermont, and an MFA in Dramatic Writing from the Yale School of Drama (now renamed for David Geffen, who gave it a shitload of money).

​

I moved to Spain when I married a Spanish woman, not intending to stay so long. Career suicide I suppose, but it's home now, I love it here, and it's much too late to go back. No regrets.

​

I taught theater and creative writing for many years at Saint Louis University's Madrid campus, but I'm retired now. I'm also a widower, which is what my book Maritxu is about.

​

It's been gratifying in recent years to get a few things published. I'll try to keep it going.
