Alan is a graduate of the University of Georgia and Adelphi University (Garden City, NY) where he majored in neither writing, English, or communications.This is Alan's second book. His first work, "Torah Lite.It Could Be Verse" was a runaway best seller among his friends and relatives. Alan is so pleased with "Musings and Mirth" that he published it himself. With the help of his wife, Sona, who spent many countless hours correcting both spelling and syntax, Alan has, he feels, created a work of which he is truly proud.
