I have always loved to write even in the early stages of my life...thoughts, memories, and recollections of my experiences and travels. Growing up in Los Angeles, California...my studies in theatre and acting opened my mind and heart to others and their lives...with a desire to find the spiritual edge in the physical mainstream of my life.  As a street singer living in "the city by the bay" during the 1970's...I developed more of a passion for people and cities.  I believe my love of jazz has given me the ability...not only to phrase a song...but to also phrase the written word in the melodic sense.  I have spent much of my time in the city and the desert.  The eclectic world I chose...and still choose to live...only sheds more light on my writing experiences and thoughts. Books that are closest to me have been those of others lives...biographies.  It is then with pen and paper...to share the light!
