I was born on June 1, 1941 My first home was an apartment in Manhattan s Upper West Side, a neighborhood that overlooked the George Washington Bridge Soon after kindergarten, my family moved to Scarsdale, which seemed to be in the country In high school, I broke my ankle when I went out for the lacrosse team, so I wrote a sports column for the school newspaper I don t think I showed any particular talent for writing then.I went to St John s College in Annapolis, Maryland I actually learned to read Greek I didn t understand it, though I transferred from St John s to New York University, so I could study political science and economics I graduated with a major in philosophy and a minor in English My first job was a market researcher for a beer company in New Jersey Over the next five years, I switched jobs several times advertising copywriter, advertising account executive, and marketing manager at a candy company.I married Vicki and we had a baby, Douglas I wanted him to have a home surrounded by grass and trees and ball fields, so I accepted a job in Minnesota, and Doug got a baby sister, Dana What rescued me from poverty was that my wife and some other mothers wrote a cookbook We published it ourselves, and it was a huge hit That s how I figured out that I wanted to be a publisher when I grew up We built Meadowbrook Press, and I became an author of baby name books and humor books for adults.Ten years ago, I wanted to put together a children s book of all the poems they loved best To find these poems, I tested poems in elementary schools As I was testing poems on children, I decided to write a few to see what the response would be At first it wasn t that good, but as my writing improved, I added my poems to new books To get them just right, I d rewrite them over and over I ve now edited six poetry anthologies and filled three books with my own poems Because I spent a lot of time reading and testing poems in classrooms, schools started inviting me to perform I ve now performed at hundreds of schools My goal to put on the most entertaining, most educational, and most motivating assembly a school has ever had My web site, gigglepoetry, helps kids discover the fun of reading and writing poetry.Language arts are a very important part of what you learn in school You can read great books that take you to far away lands You can write your own stories and make yourself the hero of exciting adventures Even if it seems hard sometimes, don t give up Keep practicing your reading and writing skills, and soon it will become easier There are so many wonderful worlds to explore in books and poetry Get your very own passport by learning to read and write the very best that you can.
