Chuck Miceli is a multi-genre author who emphasizes his creative style rather than any single category of writing. In 2025, he co-authored “GOD is Watching the Apples,” a collaborative biography of Tops Marketplace in Plantsville, Connecticut. His 2026 releases are the “Wounded Angels Mature Reader Edition” and a revised second edition of the original “Wounded Angels: Sometimes the Only Way to Heal a Broken Heart is Through a Wounded Soul” (2020), based upon actual people, places and events. The novel features a female lead protagonist narrating her own story in the first person. In 2018, Seven Angels Theatre in Waterbury, Connecticut, produced a dramatic reading of his play based upon the same story. Over 150 people attending the premiere gave the production a standing ovation.

In 2012, Miceli published his acclaimed paranormal thriller, “Amanda’s Room.” The novel combines elements of a techno thriller, murder mystery, and science fiction story in a single volume. He published the abridged “Amanda’s Room Travel Edition” in 2015. That same year, his poem, “Miner’s Lament,” took third place for nonrhyming poetry in the 84th Annual Writer’s Digest Writing Competition.

In 1979, the U.S. Department of Justice published Miceli’s co-authored textbook, “Fire Behind Bars,” as the first book in the U.S. to deal with deadly fires in secure institutions. As a speaker and consultant, Chuck has delivered workshops, training courses, and technical assistance to educational and professional organizations nationwide.

Chuck Miceli was born the son of a Pennsylvania coal miner, grew up one of eleven children in Brooklyn, New York, and is a seminary college graduate with degrees in Philosophy and Criminal Justice. He has served as Training Officer in a maximum-security prison, Chief of Curriculum at the Connecticut Justice Academy, Coordinator for the National Institute of Corrections Resource Center, President of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at UConn Waterbury, and as a Staff Sergeant in the Marine Corps Reserves. He lives with his wife, Judy, in suburban Connecticut.
