Since penning a short story that my high school literature teacher liked, writing has been what makes me go. I wrote for and edited my high school yearbook; wrote news, features and sports for my college newspaper; edited a post-graduate yearbook; and, more than two decades later, published a high school reunion program.
In the interim? You name it, I've done it:
- edited law books for a publishing company
- wrote newsletters, press releases, issue summaries, position papers and speeches for a non-profit organization that promotes trade unions
- edited a literary magazine and wrote organizational reports for two more non-profit organizations, all the while delivering speeches, recruiting members, compiling budgets and arranging cultural programs across the United States and the then-U.S.S.R.
- served for seven years as the Washington bureau chief and correspondent for The Jerusalem Post, covering diplomacy, politics, sports, travel, culture and more
- worked for seven years as an editor, writer and copyediting chief for a national medical lobbying group
- write articles for Web sites, magazines, newspapers and wire services
- write for trade magazines in the fields of media, optometry, pharmaceuticals and medicine
- write speeches, newsletters, op-ed columns, promotional materials and fundraising letters for corporate clients, nonprofit organizations, small businesses and diplomats
- edit Web sites and publications for content, grammar, appropriateness and ... oomph!
Thousands of news articles and features, hundreds of newsletters, dozens of speeches and brochures -- yet each project is unique, challenging and valued. I look forward to discussing how my experience can pay dividends for you.
