Bio
I am interested in translating German literature from the 1890's to the late 1940's. Much of this literature is not being translated because of stigma attached to the Nazis during WWII even though the literature was written decades before Hitler came to power.

SideReal Press in England has published my new translation of "Alraune" by Hanns Heinz Ewers which corrects mistakes and omissions of the previous John Day edition. I have also published two other volumes of short stories by Hanns Heinz Ewers: "Hanns Heinz Ewers Volume I" and "Illustrated Stories by Hanns Heinz Ewers". I have almost completed "Hanns Heinz Ewers Volume II" and am also working on the book "Lemuria" by Karl Hans Strobl. I have also translated and published "Simplicissimus Vol 1, No. 1", Germany's noted tabloid of the arts that ran from 1896 to 1943. It contains essays, short stories, poems and illustrations.

I am currently contracted with the Hanns Heinz Ewers estate to translate the complete works of Hanns Heinz Ewers and Dr. Wilfried Kugel's definitive biography. This means that I have more than enough work but not enough time to do it all! With me it is a labor of love.
