As could be said for most attorneys, I found the practice of law somewhat, shall we say, stifling, and that is what led me to a writing career. I came to realize that behind the cold sterile facts of the reported cases that I read, lies a human interest story and, of course, an opportunity to write that story. Peaches & Daddy is the product of my love for narrative history combined with some twenty-five years in the trenches as a lawyer.                        

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
I am a 1980 graduate of Framingham State College, and a 1983 graduate of Pepperdine University School of Law. I was a member and editor of the Pepperdine Law Review and was admitted to the practice of law in June of 1984. I have been engaged in private practice since then. I am a member of the Massachusetts Bar, and am admitted to practice before the Federal District Court for the District of Massachusetts, and the United States Supreme Court. I am the author of two published law review articles, and, of course, a full-length nonfiction book, Peaches & Daddy, A Story of the Roaring 20s, the Birth of Tabloid Media, and the Courtship that Captured the Heart and Imagination of the American Public. I live in a suburb of Boston with my wife Donna, and two boys, Corey and Jeffrey.
