Autorenporträt
Stephen Wunderli is the author of several books, a few short stories, a drawer-full of uninteresting articles written to pay the rent, and a reel of award-winning commercials. He once wrote a short narration for Walter Cronkite, was honored by the United Nations and tried to meet John Prine, but it was raining too hard.
