A Canadian writer, I am struggling, like so many others, to communicate stories that are readable and entertaining. I began as an actor and writer with theatres across the country that were committed to creating original work. That gave way to studying psychology at York University in Toronto, where I graduated with a Master's degree. I went on to pursue an education degree in a one year program at U. of Toronto, and soon settled on teaching English, part time, at public and private high schools. I continued to write short stories and novels as well as ghostwriting books for Holocaust survivors and others.
