WorksNewspaper/Web writingThe New York Times
I’ve contributed to nine columns in the business section over the years and am currently a lead writer of "The Boss" column, one of the most widely read columns in the business section (or so I’ve heard). People who lead companies or non-profits are fascinating, and being able to write about them is just about the best gig in the world. Princeton U. Seminar
For Princeton University, I wrote about an infectious diseases seminar given by a professor for the Woodrow Wilson school, which nicely tied together my interests in education and health. The topic was how to best tackle the problem of malaria and other infectious diseases in Africa. Magazine writingAlzheimer’s Foundation

(Da Capo Lifelong, 2008) Here's an excerpt from the back cover of my book on addiction in the family: In the vein of Adult Children of Alcoholics, Sober Siblings is the first book geared specifically to the siblings of alcoholics. Patricia Olsen, sister of two alcoholic brothers, shares her personal experiences along with interviews with other sober siblings, while Petros Levounis, M.D., the director of The Addiction Institute of New York at St. Luke's and Roosevelt Hospitals, offers expert advice. I also write book proposals for aspiring authors. |
