About me

Occupation music publisher
Location New York, New York
Introduction Days of Heaven was largely a memoir (not in chronological order) about my life in film production from college years to 1994. Quiet Sound is a new music opinion column that I never have time to work on. I have a music job, and occasionally practice archery on our roof in Washington Heights when it's not too windy.
