 Gary with his three favorite things in the world... wife Nora, son Glen and beer Gary Greenberg was born and raised in the Philadelphia area. He attended Penn State University where he majored in rugby and happy hour and miraculously graduated with a B.A. degree in journalism in 1976. He has been writing professionally for more than 25 years, mostly as a reporter and freelancer. A world traveler and adventurer, Gary has a vast reservoir of mostly useless information which he draws upon to write a myriad of things including essays, tales of travel, newspaper and magazine articles, short and long fiction, and children’s stories and verse. As a writer, Gary has found it necessary to occasionally find alternate employment including jobs as a deli counterman, thoroughbred horse groom, apartment house manager, weight training instructor, house painter, freshman composition instructor, drawbridge operator and import/export business manager (see A Man for the Job). He currently works at American Media, Inc. (the anthrax people) where he writes stories for the supermarket tabloids Globe and National Examiner. Since 1999, he has also owned and operated a freelance writing service called Super Writer, Inc. Gary began painting cosmic landscapes in the early 1990s and has performed on various street corners and at art festivals throughout South Florida. For more on this, check out Vagabond Artist. He lives in Boca Raton, Florida, with his eternally 39-year-old wife, Nora, 13-year-old son, Glen, dogs, Lucky and Jasmine, quaker parrot Paco, parakeet Quiko, bearded dragon Spotz and Florida box turtle Stella.
