Richard Sinay was a high school and college English and reading teacher for schools in Orange County, California, for thirty-five years. In his retirement, he spends most of his time playing golf, reading, and writing. He has five publications: Who We Met on the Way to Stanford: A Father’s Memoir, the story of who he and his son met in the golf world. Fittingly, the book How to Get a Golf Scholarship to Stanford: A Parent’s Guide is intended for those parents who want to see their golfer play for Stanford. His subsequent publication, Observations of America and My Ancestral Past: An Epistolary Autobiography, is a daily account of a twenty-five thousand-mile trip around the country. Recently, a new publication, Crazy Little Children Are Jangling the Keys of the Kingdom: The Estrangement Epidemic in America, was published. It is an examination of the estrangement epidemic in America. Finally, Confessions of an English Teacher: A Memoir of My Teaching Years is the first of his books about teaching English in California high schools and community colleges. He resides in Palm Desert, California, with his wife, Tina. Read more about this authorRead less about this author
