Autorenporträt

The author is from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Amherst College and Harvard Law School. He served as an officer in the US Navy in WWII on four different minesweepers in the Pacific during several years. He then practiced law for several years in Pennsylvania, including a clerkship with a judge. However, he had broader ambitions and joined the international division of what is now Citibank. Thus began a long and satisfying international career, mostly abroad, representing several US banks and consulting firms. He spent forty years living and working in over thirty different countries. He finally retired to his present home in southern Arizona but took up a writing career. He published a well-regarded textbook on international banking, a novel, and several collections of short stories, of which this volume is his fourth.
