About the author
Born in 1954 at Huntington Hospital, Huntington Station, Long Island, New York, I come from a large Italian Catholic family. As a child, in Catholic grammar school, I would get in trouble with the Nuns for not paying attention in class. Reason being, I was always jotting down short stories that would pop into my head, goofy ideas that nobody except me could understand. Early on, watching television, John Wayne movies, Bogart, even "The Wizard of Oz," I was quickly able to detect what good dialogue was. As I got older, honing my writing, I soon realized how important the written word should be, realistic, thus, believable.

Talent runs in my family. My great Uncle Tom Palmer, formally Tom Pipolo, was one of the first 17 animators who worked for Walt Disney. Uncle Tom was one of the animators who developed the character Goofy. Later on he worked for Fletcher Studios and was one of the directors of animation for the 1939 cartoon classic, Gulliver's Travels.
Anyhow, as far as my writing, there is more to come. Romance, Westerns and Comedy. All to be scripted for your good pleasure.

Thank you for your time -
