Autorenporträt
Alan Bryce Grossman is a historical novelist, creative writer, husband, father, grandfather, art appreciator, and, an attorney. He is originally from Chicago (Skokie), a lifelong Cubs' fan, but grew up in South Florida from his teen years, enjoying the South Florida lifestyle, the memory of life in the Windy City, and being a solid Florida Gator. He enjoys writing, drawing, photography, gardening, spending time in nature, and being around his artist wife, without whom the richness of his life would be diminished. He loves spending time in the kitchen whipping up creative meals for his family. As an attorney, Alan has published several articles in legal journals. He has dreamed of a life as an author, from the time in tenth grade when his teacher raved about his "What I Did This Summer" essay. As an adult, he chose the law while working in computer science at the National Security Agency, and attending law school at night at the University of Baltimore. He is an avid reader and drinker of gourmet coffees, and when the two conjoin, his life is heavenly.
