Join us as we discuss his
mystery series
Murders in the Museum of Man. Learn what inspires him, how the characters
influence the stories and if he will give away any clues of what
he will be writing next.

Harvard on a scholarship. As a journalist he worked for CBS, the
Boston Herald Traveler, the Worcester Telegram, and the Montgomery
Advertiser (Alabama). He also led natural history travel programs
at the Harvard Museum of Natural History. He retired to write full
time in 2001, and still leads guided trips to India, Africa and
elsewhere. He has published six novels and currently lives in Belmont
with his wife Sally.
We will be discussing his writings both process and product. Refreshments
