He has published short stories, poems, and book reviews, and served as chair of the Fiction Award Committee of the Bay Area Book Reviewers Association. He is the author of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Imperial Hotel, a photographic essay on that now-demolished building, Julia Morgan, a young person’s biography of the San Francisco architect’ and King & Raven, his first novel.
