I’m the Executive Editor of Tripatini.com. I’ve also been a freelance writer since resigning as editor-in-chief of Diversion (Hearst) in 2004, writing stories that have been featured in…
  • The New York Times
  • Delta Sky magazine
  • Caribbean Travel & Life
  • Diversion (Hearst’s lifestyle magazine for doctors)
  • The Australian
  • To Japan with Love (ThingsAsian Press)
  • Custom publications for Wachovia, Pennsylvania, and Toyota
  • Brides.com, EverettPotter.com, TravelMuse.com, etc.

I explore and--knock wood--illuminate history, the arts, the outdoors, and affordable travel for people with sophisticated tastes. I write profiles of successful people, too. My stories are accurate, informative, and entertaining, because I want the readers' attention.

This reader- and editor-friendly approach is no accident; I was an editor at Hearst for 20 years. In addition to producing a magazine, my team created custom publications, contests, a new website, and a finance magazine for physicians.

I’ve since worked as acting editor of Milford Magazine, training the staff and overseeing a redesign in 2007. At Caribbean Escapes and EverettPotter.com I've served as associate editor.

Along with my wife and a terrier of indeterminate lineage, I divide my stay-at-home time between downtown Manhattan and rural Pennsylvania. I'm an expert on this tri-state region, with its forests, cascades, wildlife, federally protected Delaware River, and (finally!) first-rate resorts—all within 100 miles of New York City.

As an editor I’ve always been ahead of the pack in adopting to new media; as president of the New York Travel Writers Association I continue to move forward. I’m an active member of SATW and the publicist for a nonprofit arts organization.
