The Author

 

After a lifetime spent in his native New YorkEric Paul Lee now resides in beautiful, tropical, Miami, Florida.

Born in Brooklyn and raised in Coney Island, Eric often wandered the Boardwalk in his childhood. Eric frequently wasted his allowance at the now demolished Steeplechase Park and the other dated, dowdy and declining amusements that defined Coney Island, and much of traditional society then. The “traditional” was still in. And the “traditional” like Coney Island had seen its glory days, its heyday, long passed. But the new hadn’t arrived yet. Just the old was fading…

And so the forms still had to be obeyed. And with that Eric’s parents obeyed those “forms” and Eric was dispatched to college in Upstate NY to return to Brooklyn some four years later. Upon graduation from college, Eric bounced from job to job until the Graphic Arts caught his creative eye and a new career began. With his first graphics production position under his belt Eric moved into Manhattan some two years later never to live in Brooklyn again.

Success built on success as corporate stints in California brought about even greater successes leading to Eric’s eventual New York City return and the opening of his own Graphics Agency in Manhattan. That enterprise ran successfully for over 20 years.

Now out of industry entirely, Eric is happy to enjoy the perpetual Florida sun and write.
