Home Run King

Former Associated Press sportswriter Dan Schlossberg has written or co-authored 40 baseball books, including autobiographies of Ron Blomberg, Al Clark, and Milo Hamilton. A national baseball writer for Forbes.com, he also writes for Memories and Dreams, Sports Collectors Digest, USA TODAY Sports Weekly, and Here's The Pitch, a newsletter for which he edits weekend editions. The 1969 Syracuse University graduate is co-founder of the North American Travel Journalists Association [NATJA] and served as its president for fifteen years. He also hosts two travel radio shows, including the popular podcast Travel Itch Radio. His 1980 hardcover book, The Baseball Catalog, was a 1980 Book of the Month Club alternate and has had more than a dozen updates. Dan lives in suburban Fair Lawn, New Jersey, which he says is close enough to enjoy New York City but far enough away not to be bothered by it.
