I spent ten years at IBM writing speeches for senior executives, producing and writing motivational films, videos, modules for business meetings, and crafting continuity for the prestigious Hundred Percent Clubs and Golden circle recognition events. I also wrote and produced motivational modules and was managing editor of “Management Review” for IBM’s National Service Division. Much of the writing at IBM was technical and complex.

As a freelance writer, I’ve written numerous proposals for New York City production companies seeking industrial shows for corporate recognition events. Some of those proposals were for Strauss Auto Stores, Marriott, AT&T, Cyanamid, Telephone Pioneers of America, Sprint, New Orleans Hospital, Hoffman-Larouche, and J.D. Edwards Worldwide Annual User Group Conference to name just a few.

I’ve written two screenplays, one as writer-for-hire, and I recently completed another screenplay, “Eagle’s Gold,” which is based on my novel with the same title. Recently, I completed a TV documentary film proposal based on an air raid of American bombers on the Ploești, Romania oil fields in 1944. The proposal, geared toward The History Channel, is entitled “The Wings of Madness.” Using the pseudonym, Christopher Sloan, I wrote and published two novels: “In Search of Eagles,” and “On the Wings of Death.” I co-wrote a year-by-year history of the United States— “It Was a Very Good Year” covers America’s pop culture from 1776 to 1993. I also co-wrote “Exploring IBM’s Brave New Internet Strategy: An Inside Look at Big Blue’s Vision for the Future of Computing,” which was one of the first books to explore what was then the beginning of the Internet; it was a ground-breaking book.
