Lenny Levine was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, and his soul has never left. Before turning to fiction writing, he enjoyed a twenty-year career as a studio singer and composer of many successful jingles such as McDonald’s, Lipton Tea, and Jeep. He has written songs for Diana Ross, the Pointer Sisters, and Barry Manilow and sung backup for Billy Joel, Peggy Lee, Carly Simon, and others.
His short stories have been widely published in literary magazines and journals, and he received a Pushcart Prize nomination for short fiction. Diehard Fan is his third novel.
