| Introduction | I'm a veteran editor and writer who has published more than 1,600 articles in print and online. I've worked a variety of beats as a reporter, most notably the three years I spent as a syndicated children's TV critic. I currently write middle-grade biographies for Atombank Books. Among my books are "Mary Dyer: Friend of Freedom", "Judy Garland: Little Woman, Big Talent", and "Pete Seeger: The People's Singer". I also have my first picture book, "Leaping Lemmings", coming out with Sterling Publishing in Fall 2016! |
