Author: Art

Art’s writing career burst forth at age eight when he won a creative essay contest at his local public library. Shortly thereafter, he learned about paying bills. Leaving the famous leafy Boston suburb he’d always called home, he earned his BA in geology at a bucolic, erudite college not too far away where he met and hung out with guys talented enough to actually climb the big mountains that still intrigue him.

After that, he embarked on a career telling CEOs what to do. Over several illustrious decades—maxing out on frequent flier miles, but never quite mastering jet lag—he penned countless corporate treatises, each of which seemed weighty and potent at the time. Mercifully, that part of Art’s literary oeuvre remains cordoned behind non-disclosure agreements.

He has published in places as diverse and obscure as Computer Reseller News and Ultrarunning Magazine.

Shortly after 9-11, without ever really intending to, he became a Christian.

Art and his wife of 30+ years remain planted near Boston where they walk their dogs alongside an expanding flock of grandchildren.

Covered With Snow is his first novel.
