Gerald Warfield

Biography

After leaving Princeton in 1970 I moved to New York where I lived for 30
years. During this time, around 1985, I changed professions
(painlessly) to that of writer--witness my list of publications below.

In early 2000 I resigned my position as general manager
of SCI and left New York for Texas to be close to my sister and to help
with the family.
