About the Author

A lifelong storyteller, forty years in the making

Michael P. Pascullo grew up in Richmond Hill, Queens, where the 1963 assassination of JFK and the Beatles' 1964 debut on The Ed Sullivan Show left twin marks on his imagination. After a 40-year career in technology — culminating as a Chief Information Officer — he retired in 2024 and turned his analytical, storytelling instincts to fiction. He still plays drums in a classic rock band with his wife, Louisa, in Northern Westchester, NY.
