Glenn Feole attended Princeton University, '74, and majored in philosophy and pre-medical studies. He studied existentialism under Professor Walter Kaufmann, writing a thesis on Sartre's Being and Nothingness. Nothing prepared him for medical school, and he was accepted at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons but deferred his medical studies to play bass in a jazz band. He later graduated from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine and completed a pediatric residency at Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati. As an aspiring writer, he was drawn to William Carlos Williams's and Allen Ginsberg's hometown of Paterson, New Jersey, where he served two years in the public health service. While there he published his first pieces of poetry, one of which, "Aequanimitas," was published in JAMA as well as in a textbook of the Osler Society of America. He spent the next eleven years in private practice. Nine of those years were spent as an anachronistic, house-call making solo pediatrician with an office in his home in Westport, Connecticut. For the next six years, he lived in Richmond, Virginia, where he worked part-time as a medical examiner, did volunteer pediatric work in the inner city, substitute taught at inner-city high schools, and wrote five books. He has since returned to full-time pediatric work, devoting himself to clinics that care for the underserved, uninsured, and Medicaid patients, and has a special interest in serving migrant Hispanic workers. He is currently working for Eau Claire Cooperative Health Clinics in Columbia, South Carolina, at a satellite clinic called Pediatrics of Batesburg-Leesville, while sneaking off to English lectures at USC in the evenings. He and his wife, Tina, have been happily married for twenty-six years and have four children. His last two books include a book of poetry and a book of pediatric anecdotes, First Words, as a solo pediatrician. Don Lasseter, California native and resident, has authored more than fifty magazine articles and a dozen nonfiction books about notorious crimes and criminals. A World War II historian, he has photographed sites of most major battles and penned a book detailing the adventures of downed airmen in France.Feole, Glenn L. is the author of 'Complete Patricia Cornwell Companion', published 2005 under ISBN 9780425201312 and ISBN 0425201317.
