He attended Newark Public Schools and came to love the city in spite of the many mischances and confusions life had offered; along with sour moments of racism he and his family experienced.
He dedicated his life to teaching. He lived in Newark during its best, as well as at its downfall with violence; corruption; and garbage.
He loves poetry. As a high school student, he was chosen to participate at Columbia University: Italian Department Poetry contest. He attended Rutgers University as undergraduate and graduate student. Here, he published poems in "Lettere," a magazine in the Italian Department. He went to study at the University of Urbino, Italy. He taught Italian at Seton Hall University as an adjunct, and English as Second Language at Union County College as an adjunct for many years. He organized many cultural exchanges with Italy, as well as trips to Spain and France with his students. He is currently a retired teacher.visualizza meno
