I am a history teacher, college counselor
and varsity softball coach at Wyoming Seminary
College Preparatory School in Kingston, Pennsylvania. My
multi-talented wife, Courtney ,
also works at Sem, where she is the librarian .
Courtney is accompanied every day by Bugsy ,
who we adopted from Delaware
Valley Golden Retriever Rescue . Bugsy is hugely popular
at Sem, and loves working at the library.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree from Hampshire College and a
Master of Arts in American Studies from Purdue University . My
hobbies include playing the guitar ,
and baseball. I've been a member of the Society for American Baseball
Research for over 20 years. Recently, I was honored to
have an article of mine published in
their journal, The National Pastime .
I am working hard to free

I've been playing the guitar since 1986,
though I haven't been in a band for several years. I've made
some very rough multitrack recordings on my
home computer, which I hope to someday take and fine tune into
a real album. I've been posting my work on soundclick.com a site
for web based musicians. The name of the site is the "Low
Standards ", the name of one of my current projects .
Check out my tunes! You can also hear a live
recording of Bob Dylan's "Positively 4th St ." with my
old band from back in 2003.
My Master's Thesis: "'A Structure to
Last Forever': The Players' League and The Brotherhood War
of 1890" , examines this pivotal moment in the history of
professional sports. It is available in full as a set of .pdf files , if you
prefer. You may need to download the free Acrobat
Reader to view those files. This set of pages was
recognized by Lightspan
Studyweb (sadly, no longer with us) with their Academic
Excellence award.
I have a blog (Icarus
P. Anybody ) on which I put some of my musings and
reflections. Occasionally I will also publish some
miscellaneous writings on this site, such as my Lincoln's Birthday speech about
Lincoln and Frederick Douglass, my essay about the final games played at Veterans Stadium
(home of the Philadelphia Phillies from 1971 to 2003), my think piece on the September 11,
2001 tragedy ; my eulogy for my
late father , my essay on the expulsion of Senator Jesse
Bright and my set of pages explaining computer basics .
