About Tom
I have worked for the past 45 years as an advocate for troubled youth. I began my career when still in high school, serving as a street contact for a runaway shelter. It was during my time as a worker at a detention facility for delinquent youth, that I began writing stories for the residents. When kids began asking for sequels to my works, I knew I had discovered a way to communicate and connect with troubled kids.
As a mediator for my own truancy program, I provided wake-up calls for a wide mix of state wards and alternative students. As an English/Drama instructor, I once produced a substance abuse program which had an impact on 15,000 at-risk kids at a YMCA summer camp. I believe, though, that my greatest accomplishment can be summed up in the words of one troubled boy who wrote to me from an institution: “Discovered your book today. It was like reading a letter you wrote directly to me. It not only changed my life, it saved it. Thanks for giving me hope.”
