Born in The Bronx, New York City, Ted attended The H.S. of Music & Art (Art Major)and City College of New York and New York University (Electrical and Industrial Engineering).
While grounded technically, he has always enjoyed writing and "words." One of his loves is astronomy which led to his first book in 2012 "From the Big Bang to the Big Mac," a labor of love given that it enabled him to both learn more about the cosmos and write. Ted's blog in this respect is "Bang Goes the Universe," (http://cosmosgazer.blogspot.com/)
Ted has since written three fictional works: "The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow," "The Club," and, for children (9- to 11-year old range), "The Barely Visible Bear."
He resides with his wife of almost fifty years, Barbara, in the sunny climes of southeast Florida. They raised two sons - Jeff and Rob - who are both married and have provided Ted with one granddaughter each.
