Shapiro, David L.

David L. Shapiro was encouraged by his family to write down the tales that have kept his children and grandchildren enthralled over the years. Sara's Journey is his first published novel, inspired by half-forgotten stories his father told him about Russia in the early 1900s. A veteran of World War II, now retired with his wife and living in Florida, Shapiro continues to pursue his writing?a fascination that took root at age 12, when he won $15 dollars in a poetry contest.
