Gladiators Playing to the Six O'clock News is a fictional account loosely based on a year in the life of a young officer in Viet Nam. It has gritty language and adult situations graphically depicted in the lives of GIs at war. It follows what Lt. Marc Bowman has to go through from the time he lands in Viet Nam till he boards the Freedom Bird bringing him back to the states (The World). Although the events, situations and people in the book are mostly true the names have been changed to protect the privacy of all. The situations and people involved may be combined and attributed to Marc for consistency of storyline by following one character throughout the book. There are several scenes in the book that are totally fictional to build the characters or interest in the storyline.
Education-wise he earned an MA from San Jose State University in television and a BS degree from Ohio State University in theatre and fine arts. He has been very active in the Educational Theatre Association and was inducted into the California State Thespian Hall of Fame.
Additional honors include best Scenic Design for Fiddler on the Roof, 1995; Best Show and best Special Design for the puppets in Little Shop of Horrors, 1988 and 1996; Best Orchestra for several musicals, 1999, 2002, 2006; Best Lighting Design for Fiddler on the Roof , 2002 all from American Music Theatre's "Honors" program.
He is a combat veteran serving in Viet Nam in 1969-70 as a First Lieutenant. Much of his book describes his year there.
His hobby is the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), a worldwide medieval educational organization where he participates in as a medieval martial artist. He has published a book loosely based on his experiences in Viet Nam entitled Gladiators Playing To The Six O'Clock News which is now an e-book by the same name
