About the Author After editing a daily newspaper and then the investment news-letter that became Standard & Poor's weekly Outlook, I wrote investment reports and directed industry research for Wall Street firms. In the 1990s, I operated Howard Bonham Research, an independent research firm in Houston, Texas. That opportunity arose because scandals of corrupt research on Wall Street had created a demand for independent opinions. I was very much off-Wall Street, yet advantageously located in the hubbub of oil and gas happenings in Houston. I published other industry reports as well. When the bubble burst on Internet stocks and stocks in general in the 1990s, I completed and sold my investment and financial dictionary, and resolved to concentrate on freelance and creative writing. Presently, I live in Maryland, a few miles from the Chesapeake Bay. The eastern shore is one of my favorite places and I go there as often as possible. After a career of writing structured reports on portfolios, companies and industries, I have broken free and am no longer a danger to the investment public. However, I look forward to tackling investment topics again; my cowering MBA muse, whose pinstriped suit was taken to the cleaners in the recent financial crash, still hangs around, waiting for his good -as-new duds to be ready.
