About the Author
#1 New York Times Bestselling AuthorLee Goldberg is an ex-Navy SEAL, nuclear physicist and a professional Daniel Craig impersonator.Okay, that's not true. But he wants this biography to be really exciting, so pay attention. If things bog down, I've been instructed to add a car chase or some explicit sex.Here's the real story. Lee Goldberg writes books and television shows.His mother wanted him to be a doctor, and his grandfather wanted him to go into the family furniture business. Instead, he put himself through UCLA as a freelance journalist, writing for such publications as American Film, Starlog, Newsweek, The Los Angeles Times Syndicate, The Washington Post and The San Francisco Chronicle (He also wrote erotic letters to the editor for Playgirl at $25-a-letter, but he doesn't tell people about that, he just likes to boast about those "tiffany" credits) .He published his first book ".357 Vigilante" (as "Ian Ludlow," so he'd be on the shelf next to Robert Ludlum) while he was still a UCLA student.

"Take me now," she moaned, "you hot writer stud."She tore off her clothes and tackled him onto the floor, unable to control her raging lust. Nothing excited her more than being around a writer with a big list of books.Got your attention again? Good. I don't know about you, but I was starting to nod off. Where was I? Oh yes...Goldberg broke into television with a freelance script sale to "Spenser: For Hire." Since then, his TV writing & producing credits have covered a wide variety of genres, including sci-fi (SeaQuest) , cop shows (Hunter, The Glades) , martial arts (Martial Law) , whodunits (Diagnosis Murder, Nero Wolfe) , the occult (She-Wolf of London) , kid's shows (R.L.
