Welcome to my author page. I'm a board-certified psychiatrist, author, and professional speaker.

I write both fiction and non-fiction, including the Barrett Conyors forensic thriller series as well as books on Alzheimer's and Bipolar Disorder. My newest series is set in Connecticut and features two female sleuths, who fall in love with one another. The first--VULTURES AT TWILIGHT (Severn House) will be released in 2012.

In addition to books I've written hundreds of articles, columns, and shorts stories for professional and popular magazines, newspapers, and journals. I've been a regular contributor to the American Medical Association's American Medical News, a consultant to the Reader's Digest Medical Breakthrough series, and my work has appeared in publications ranging from The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) to Writer's Digest Magazine. I've been twice featured in the New York Times, as well as many other publications.

I live in Connecticut where I split my time between clinical work, writing and family.
