Craig A. Horowitz

I live in Santa Monica, California and have practiced employment law for 38 years. I received an honors degree in History at Brown University, winning the Pell Medal for the best male student in History. My first book, published in 2009 titled "Row 47," details the twenty year journey of three acquaintances who become the best of friends going to UCLA football games as season ticket holders. My next book, "The Legislative Legacy of Edward M. Kennedy," published in 2014 by McFarland and Company, utilizes my history and legal background and analyzes in a dispassionate way Kennedy's most well known legislative efforts. My third book "Ken Minyard: Thirty Years of Morning Drive and the Foxification of Talk Radio," chronicles the career of a radio icon and the conservative shift in radio during his time on the air and after. My fourth book, "The Defense Rests," my first fiction book, gives a peak into big law firm life. A legal thriller, it is a page turner with an improbable ending. My sequel "Gideon's Choice," picks up from the suspenseful ending to "The Defense Rests" and provides a page turning look into the political process with many unexpected twists and turns. The last of the trilogy "Gideon's Redemption" concludes the series with a murder for hire plot and dramatic criminal trial. My latest book "COACH" is an alternative fiction of what may have happened if my son had lived. For many reasons, I am most proud of this book as it provides a tribute to my late son Jake, who died far to early at age 21.
