Dr. Hope, J.A.P.D. (Just A Pretend Doctor)
(Naw, that's not him, that's a character from one of his storybooks. Dr. Hope is too shy to have his picture taken.)

Born in New York City, Dr. Hope learned a spirit of optimism and humor from his mother that would stick with him throughout his life. When he was forcibly separated from her at an early age, these lessons empowered him to cope with his ever-changing surroundings.

Having lived in foster homes, state run dormitories, with stepparents, grandparents and in boarding schools, Dr. Hope saw first hand, abuses that most of us can only imagine.

Dr. Hope vowed that one-day he would give children the same tools that had helped him cope with difficult situations and disagreeable people. And boy, did he. From the promise he made to himself came the award winning "Life Lessons Series," a series of children's books that teach children "life" lessons in entertaining and amusing ways.

In the past three years Dr. Hope has had four of his children's books published: The critically acclaimed Laughing Day, Chip, the Little Computer, The Frog Who Couldn't Jump, and Punctuation Pals. He received a Certificate of Award from the San Diego Book Awards Association for Outstanding Accomplishments in Writing for his first bilingual children's book, Chip, the Little Computer.

Dr. Hope is also a talented piano player, composer, lyricist, and producer. He has teamed up with Comic/Actor/Singer Russ T. Nailz and together they have created a series of delightfully humorous children's CDs and cassettes. On the CDs Dr. Hope's stories are brought to life through talented voice actors, special audio effects, heart-felt background music, and delightfully humorous songs that make kids think and laugh.
