About the Author

LESTER KAUFMAN is the author of The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation and publisher of GrammarBook.com. A lifelong public servant, he served first in the Peace Corps, and eventually completed the final years of his federal career with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. He married Jane Straus in 1987. After his retirement from the EPA, Kaufman began working with Jane on The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation and the GrammarBook.com website.
