A Writer's Life

A Writer's Life

by James M. Shevis, Jim Shevis

2002 · iUniverse

A Writer's Life: More Ups Than Downs is sure to attract large numbers of readers for its description of a career in the making and for the author's frankness in surmounting obstacles. Jim Shevis has had his ups and downs, there's no question of that. But he's always managed to get up one more time than he's fallen down. This is a seasoned journalist who traveled to Russia and Kazakhstan with former Vice President Gore, chinned with Norman Schwarzkopf, written speeches for Geraldine Ferraro, and covered Washington's power centers, including Congress, the Pentagon and, on occasion, the White House. Along the way, Shevis pursued a fascinating hobby - collecting autographs of some 100 newsmakers and celebrities he's met or written about. The collection includes the signatures of John F. Kennedy, Robert Frost, John Kenneth Galbraith, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Colin Powell, among others. While he has had an exciting career, the author has had some dark moments in life too - many brought on by his father's drinking as well as his own. A Writer's Life is a light, easy-to-read, topical work written in the lean style of a journalist.
