A lifelong resident of southeastern Pennsylvania, he graduated from West Chester State College with an Accounting degree. He crunched numbers for many years before succumbing to a midlife crisis. Graduating from “The Restaurant School” and spending the last ten years cooking. He started to scratch the writing bug during the blistering summer heat of 2008.
THANKS
THE GOOD LORD
Every chef who ever pissed me off…. You forced me to write
The Restaurant School: their teaching of cooking techniques, really did teach me how to cook. (Even though I did not believe it at the time)
Pam: for telling me to go to cooking school
Shane: for encouraging me to write
* James J. (The Baron) Campbell: for instilling a love of language
* Mary T. Curran Campbell: for encouraging me to do what I love
* WILLIAM (BUTCH) WALLACE
You are the inspiration
· Rest in peace

and still the wonder grew
