Bio:	Born in 1955, 'Whatta' survived the NYC Public School system and accidentally graduated high school in 1973. At thirteen, he took his first hit of LSD. By the time he was fifteen, he was gainfully unemployed as a thief (references available). At sixteen, he became a teacher of Transcendental Meditation, cleaned up, and within six months had successfully influenced his friends to help him find more drugs. Spending thirty-one years in the printing business, a career he found less than satisfying, he was finally sacked in 2003. Tired of watching television, he began writing seriously at the age of forty-nine (and eleven months). Now living with his wife and daughter in California, his qualifications include a certificate of mixology and a valid driver’s licence.
