PRIMARY CLIENT is the author’s first novel. The characters in the book are composites of people he had known or treated in a career that spanned forty-two years as an Assistant Commissioner for the New York City Department of Probation, Board Certified Diplomate in Clinical Social Work, and Social Work Consultant to Nursing Homes. Pathologies delineated were glommed from actual case files.

After retiring in 1996, he moved to Boynton Beach, Florida where he resides with his wife Connie to whom he has been happily married for fifty years. They have four daughters and five grandchildren.
