What is your most recent book? Tell us a bit about it.
The Mayor, The Mob and Me. It’s a novel about being born into an Italian family with Mafia connections, and my search for my true identity. I have red hair and blue eyes, I knew there was more to my heritage than my Italian parents. I explain the search and my conclusion that my famous biological father may have never even known I was born.
Tell us something about yourself.
I’ve been interested in writing for years. My family always told me this story should come out. It’s also very cathartic for me to tell my story.
What inspired you to write this book?
I felt that I had to share it. I wanted to be able to leave behind my story for my grandchildren.
Do you read reviews?
Once and while- but I really like to just write for myself. And it’s a memoir- so it’s not a fictional story- it really happened.
Who is the perfect reader for your book?
Anyone who likes true life stories! It may seem like fiction, but it’s very much my life!
