Born in Wilmington, Del., on Nov. 23, 1940, I attended public schools in the city and earned a liberal arts degree in American Studies at the University of Delaware. While at the school, I met my wife. We married in 1960. We have two children and four grandchildren.

For 44 years, I have been a journalist as a writer, editor and critic. Eleven of the years were spent as the national television critic for the Gannett newspapers.

My interests are wide ranging, encompassing such subjects as railroads, television, theater, architecture, 20th century American illustrators, mystery fiction, American history, Roman imperial history, political science and economics.
