Greetings! I was raised in Massachusetts and live in Colorado after ten years in Switzerland, two in Denmark. I've had the good fortune to travel widely and consult to the U. N. Here's a look at my writings on Amazon:

- A novel, The Condor and the Hippo, that explores how good intentions can devolve into terrorism. It's based on experiences reorganizing the Zambian government and improving security in a dozen countries.

- Two memoirs

Sawing a Hole Through the Roof records chances I took and how they played out.

Old Stories tells vignettes from various experiences

- Stories for 8-12 year-olds told by boys that age in the Blue Marble Defender series

1 Space Spuds, where Earth is protected from an attack from potatoes in space

2 The Red Penguin, where extra-terrestrials are scared away before they steal resources

3 Sky High Evil, where threats to the environment are thwarted

4 The Puma, where baseball drama is followed by mystery at a lake house

5 The Shadow of Kilimanjaro where the Defenders protect African wildlife

6 The Boa and the Birdman where a villain threatens the Defenders on top of the Eiffel Tower

7 The Borisov Intrusion where extraterrestrials kidnap Rookie

8 Martian Invasion where a fleet of Martian spaceships defy Earth's strongest weapons

9 Smokes and Mirrors where a drama plays out on the International Space Station

 - A business book, Reinventing Communication, that shows how metaphoric, visual languages

help people capitalize on differences, think together and achieve more
