Meet Author James Sniechowski
http://carternovels.com/author-james-sniechowski.html
Jim was born and raised in a Catholic, working-class family in a tough Polish enclave (some called it a ghetto) in southwest Detroit. His grandparents arrived in Detroit from the fields and farms of Eastern Poland remaining true to a medieval sense of religiosity with its strict demand of obedience and the peasant's lifestyle.
From boyhood on Jim struggled with his growing awareness of the brutality Old World Catholicism imposed on him and everyone in his community, the lower class life they were compelled to live, including the alcohol they consumed to dull the pain they endured, and the reproach they suffered should anyone consider resisting or, even worse, leaving.
After graduating from The University of Detroit High School, a Jesuit based college prep school, he attended the University of Detroit where he discovered the theater. After receiving rave reviews for his role as The Gentleman Caller in Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie he was off to New York to study at The Neighborhood Playhouse and then on to a fifteen year career as a stage actor. Jim's deep interest in character led him to a PhD in Philosophy and Psychology and now to writing novels.
Jim's deepest desire is for his readers to experience the real world identity struggles of his characters, and be moved to examine their own internal driving forces for the betterment of the life they are creating every day.
Jim lives with his wife Judith Sherven in Northern California
