Craig HandelCraig Handel has written for newspapers in Wisconsin, Arizona, California, Massachusetts and Florida since he started writing in junior high. Inspired by his librarian and journalism teacher, he had his first published story in eighth grade. He sold ewspaper subscriptions to earn enough money to buy a cassette recorder. In college, he earned degrees in broadcast and print journalism at Wisconsin-Eau Claire. Craig also has collaborated on six other books focused on diverse topics ranging from tales from an Irish storyteller, a way to optimize mental performance in sports and business, a New Jersey entrepreneur who became a self-made millionaire, a female entrepreneur who mastered in buying real estate in Southwest Florida and building and developing nonprofits. He considers being a consultant on the documentary Curveballs ... Secrets to the Game of Life with John Biffar and David Van Sleet to be one of the most inspiring and rewarding projects in his life. He feels the men featured on this amputee baseball team offer an amazing perspective on overcoming adversity and living a life of purpose and meaning. As a writer, Craig feels there's a correlation between a great story and great quotes while there's also a correlation between great quotes and the questions that are asked. This formula is one of the main ingredients in this book on George Toma as well as other books he's written. An avid gardener and swimmer, Craig lives with wife Isabel and their puppy Ollie in St. Petersburg, Florida. Read More Read Less
