Author Bio

I was born in Detroit Michigan in 1954, but have lived most of my life in Rochester New York, where I now live with my wife of almost twenty years and my fourteen year old son. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Political Science from the SUNY Purchase in 1977 and now work as a day care teacher. Recently I wrote the lyrics for a Zydico song that is currently being played on radio stations in Louisiana and Texas.

Short and clearly stated is the best form of expression in most matters and in haiku I am at least assured of the former and I strive for the latter.
