Don Greco always dreamed of writing stories. He grew up in Youngstown, Ohio and has lived there his entire life. Had a wonderful career as a fifth grade school teacher, high school geometry teacher and professor of mathematics, all while quietly writing in his spare time. And he's written four books so far. He joins me today to talk about his passion for writing and two of his books, Abramos Gift, a family saga and love story that takes place in Youngstown, Ohio in 1920. And a children's book he's written called Whatever Happened to The Smooth Tongue Cats.
