Veteran author - novels, plays, radio etc., academic and scholarly. outdoor pursuits.
Originally, many years ago, scene builder in theatre: also factory worker. postman, mountain guide, university lecturer, wandering scholar and god knows what else.
Long and very mixed bibliography available on website, work translated and performed in several languages.
Got into screenwriting out of curiousity, but have done 8 full length features in two years , which have been decently placed in competitions. So, like a mad baby, I continue thrashing about in hopes but not ambition - after all I am 75 for fucks sake, and had several minor strokes.
Follies include mountaineering ( serious, big, solo), cycling, and what is now being called ultra running. Have had to give these up, following strokes, damn it.
(e.d can only cycle in straight lines, can't count, and get tired much too easily)
Fond of wine
Occasional actor, publisher, producer and director.
Married to Barbara Freeman, artist, for 50 plus years. Best thing I ever did. See her website.
