I am a writer living in suburban St. Louis. My novel, Murder Of An American Nazi, was recently published. It is a work of historical fiction. One reviewer described it as "...a conspiracy thriller where someone finally turns the tables on the CIA." The "Nazi" of the title is one Walter Dornberger, a German rocket scientist who worked on Hitler's V-1 and V-2 programs at Peenemunde during World War II. Dornberger was responsible for thousands of slave labor deaths at Peenemunde, and he should have been tried and hanged at Nuremberg for his war crimes. Instead, the CIA (Allen Dulles) evacuated him to the US where he worked on flight technology at Bell Helicopter in Dallas/Fort Worth. His boss was one Michael Paine, husband of Ruth Paine, in whose home the Lee Harvey Oswald family stayed during their time in Dallas. Well, you can proably see where the rest of the narrative is headed. A synopsis is at www.eloquentbooks.com/MurderOfAnAmericanNazi.html
The can be purchased at barnesandnoble.com or amazon.com
Enough of the shameless plugging.

Anyway, I have retired from teaching English at a local community college, and I am now hard at work on my next novel. I live with my wife who is a music professor. We have three kids, all grown, out of the house, and doing well. I have a wide array of interests, and I like to blog on these topics at http://leftlooking.blogspot.com
