My mother worked as a caterer. From as early as I can remember, it was me and my younger sister lugging the soup pots and cookie trays and shrimp skewers from our kitchen into the van, then arriving at a client's house and trying to make them feel comfortable in their own home.

It was an incredible social experiment for a young child. I learned how to schmooze with the folks that hired us, and the dishwashers I worked with.

I grew up fast this way. I felt most at home in other people's houses, at peace and at my best in a crowd of strangers.

Which is what I do now. Meet people I don't know, talk to them about what they do and how they see the world. Then I write it all down. Best job ever. ...more

Quotes by Geoffrey Gray (?)

“With your pleasant smile And your dropout style, D.B. Cooper, where did you go?”
― Geoffrey Gray, Skyjack: The Hunt for D. B. Cooper

“Struggling to keep their companies afloat during the recession, airline presidents don’t want to spend millions to install magnetometers, or metal detectors, in airport terminals. Won’t the devices be an inconvenience to their customers, most of whom are businessmen? Executives would cringe at having to walk through the detectors and have each bag checked for weapons and explosives. President Nixon, who counts several airline presidents among his supporters and contributors, does not want to force the airlines to comply with costly security mandates.”

“At the FBI, Hoover argues that once a plane lands, the hijacker has violated federal air piracy laws; therefore, he is within the Bureau’s jurisdiction and should be apprehended immediately. It’s too dangerous to think otherwise. What if the hijacker had a manic episode, killed the pilot, and crashed the plane into downtown Cleveland? Hundreds of bystanders would die in the explosion. Or worse. What if hijackers demanded that pilots fly airplanes into skyscrapers?”
