A Yankee Jazz Singer in Cuzco

"Yankee Jazz" is a collection of essays and reflections based upon personal experience.

My first career was in Arts and Entertainment. I was in Southern California, in my early twenties and it was amazing. I met world famous celebrities, traveled in style and devoured life in oversized bites. I left that behind for a South American sojourn that led to even greater adventures including the chance to find the love of my life.

When our daughter was born in Miami Beach, I entered a second career as a salesman in Corporate America. Watching her grow into the incredible young woman I see going off to college this fall has been worth every moment spent in this strange and challenging occupation.

The ideas expressed within these pages mark the opening of my Third Act. I hope you enjoy the show.
