BooksMy first, published in 1999 by Dutton, is a family memoir of three generations of New York City police called My Father’s Gun. The book garnered critical acclaim, and in 2003, My Father’s Gun was made into a feature-length, award-winning documentary aired on the History Channel. Since My Father’s Gun, I’ve written a biography of the first American Indian to play major league baseball called Indian Summer (Rodale 2003) (Indian Summer was finalist in the Great Lakes Booksellers Awards), the true-crime story Safe Harbor: a Murder in Nantucket (St. Martin's True Crime 2006), Last Call at Elaine’s, a memoir of my nights behind Elaine’s bar, published by St. Martin’s Press in April '08 and In the Middle of the Night:The Shocking True Story of a Family Killed in Cold Blood, published this past September by St. Martin's Paperbacks.* Along with writing books, I frequently freelance for magazines and newspapers including the New York Times Proof blog. I also teach journalism at the City University of New York. *To follow the trial and get updates on the Cheshire murder case click "blog" from menu on the top right of this page |
