About me
I am a travel journalist, novelist, writer.
Co-publisher of the award-winning green travel blog, Green Traveler Guides. Co-author of the award-winning green e-guide Green Traveler Guides Hawaii.
I was born in Ohio, schooled in New Jersey and New York, and live on a houseboat in Sausalito, California. That is, when I’m not on the road in search of the world’s best green travel.
As a travel journalist, I’ve written for many magazines and newspapers. I’ve written travel guides for Fodor’s and Bantam Books.
As a regular kind of journalist, I once asked a man on his way to becoming one of the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted, “Tony, is it true you bomb people?” I prevailed upon presidential aspirant and Congressman Dennis Kucinich to judge a pizza-eating contest. Kucinich, then a Cleveland city councilman, declared the winner to be a very hungry German Shepherd. (The dog also ate the pizza box.)
Oh, yeah. I’ve also worked as a radio newsman, a newspaper reporter, and edited magazines in Los Angeles, Detroit and Cleveland.
When not writing, traveling, or rising and falling with the tides, I occasionally sell vegetables for an organic farmer and am active in supporting Slow Food, Marin Organics and the Marin Agricultural Land Trust (MALT).
