I am proud to announce my next book, a biography of the mysterious race car driver Danny Ongais, "The Flyin' Hawaiian," will be published by David Bull Publishing. Stay tuned for pre-order and release dates. For 25 years, I have worked for the Statesman Journal – a newspaper in Salem, Oregon. I’ve won some awards for writing and reporting and turned others down. What matters to me is finding the next story that needs to be told. “The Brown Bullet: Rajo Jack’s Drive to Integrate Auto Racing,” is my first book. When my father died in 2016, I started with his collection of books and magazines as the foundation of my research into Rajo Jack. Thousands of hours, thousands of miles and hundreds of hours of interviews later, “The Brown Bullet” was completed. I’m excited about the release of my newest book “The First Lady of Dirt: The Triumphs and Tragedy of Racing Pioneer Cheryl Glass” coming in February 2024. Cheryl’s life has many interesting layers and I’m grateful to all her family, friends, and fellow drivers to who helped me piece together her story.
