Born in South Florida, he spent nearly four decades as a reporter, including more than 33 years at The Palm Beach Post in West Palm Beach. In addition to covering local news, he also wrote extensively about Florida and Florida history. "Post Time" is his weekly local history column that ranin the Post for two decades. And in early 2019, he launched "Florida Time," a Florida history column that appeared in more than two dozen Gatehouse-Gannett newspapers statewide. He has written more than a dozen books, all focusing on Florida. They include "Black Cloud," on the great 1928 Okeechobee Hurricane, and two "Weird Florida" books. His latest, “Peace River,” is a historical novel based at the end of the Civil War. He separately runs a blog on bad writing and how to fix it called "Something Went Horribly Wrong.” He is a frequent lecturer and is a member of the Florida, South Florida and Palm Beach County historical societies.
