Joe Montaperto

A swashbuckling bon vivant and dandy extraordinaire, I have written three books (a memoir trilogy of the 70s, 80's and 90's going in to the early 2000's, with myself and New York City as the backdrop) which are available now on Amazon, Goodreads, Smashwords and other platforms. Check them out - you'll laugh, you'll cry - your life will never be the same! I am a former actor, comic and solo show performer - all in New York City back in the good ole days! I have one murder under my belt...love to travel, lived in South America - mostly in the Ecuadorian Amazon Jungle, but also in Peru and Colombia among other places. I speak Spanish fairly fluently, and in fact, am often mistaken for Puerto Rican, even though I'm Sicilian-American! I now spend quite a bit of time in Southeast Asia (mostly the Philippines) and work as a bartender for catering companies in New York to support my habits - that is, when  I am not on unemployment and living in Buddhist monasteries  around the country and Canada! In fact, Montreal is my favorite city in the whole world. I am a big organic foods/ pescatarian/yoga/meditation guy who DESPISES Monsanto and Chevron, among many of the greedy sociopathic companies that are polluting and defecating our world. Otherwise, I am very saintly!
