I've published six novels. My most recent book is the dystopian political novel "A Fastball for Freedom", Book Two in The Dark Depths series, published by BHC Press. It's been called a dystopian Field of Dreams. Book One is "A Mound Over Hell," characterized as 1984 Meets Shoeless Joe. My previous novels were "Jesse's Girl"; "Loving Rabbi Thalia Kleinman"; "Take Me Out to the ballgame"; and "The Man Who Wanted to Play Center Field for the New York Yankees."

I'm also a playwright. My Broadway World award-winning (Best Play) funny new drama about bringing people together, "A Black and White Cookie," is premiering July 9-24 at The Tank theater on West 36th Street in Manhattan. thetanknyc.org ...more
