Autorenporträt
Jeff Namian loves stories, and strange ones seem to migrate his way. He's a Tri-State guy, born in Connecticut and educated in New York at Fordham. He lived and worked far too long in New York City before moving to New Jersey. He crossed the Hudson, learned to drive, and discovered the hard way that skunks aren't cartoon characters and that weeds really do grow like weeds.
