Autorenporträt
Ed Brady is an only child who is the oldest of six. He grew up in the South Bronx and western New Jersey. After attending summer school to receive a worthless diploma, he enlisted and grew up in the Navy. The training he acquired enabled him to move into the middle class. He had a wide variety of jobs and work experiences, from the Telecom industry to bartending to community organizing. He has been active in independent politics since meeting his beloved Marian in the fall of 1998. They reside on the Upper East Side of Manhattan with their tomcat Willie, the "Say-Hey" kitty. Ed has been rooting for and paying to see the Mets lose since 1962.
