Tennis has been a big part of my life. My first jobs were on tennis courts. I worked for the United States Tennis Association for close to a decade. I’ve written a book on tennis and published articles on tennis in: World Tennis, Tennis, Racquet, Tennis Week, Indianapolis Magazine, AmericanWay and Continental (the airline mags), and many more. My book is now a rarity (a perfect demonstration of the difference between scarcity and value) and finding my magazine articles would frustrate the greatest archivist. Still, a few of them are still buried somewhere out there in the world wide web. Here’s one, which is particularly apt, since its subject matter matches my tennis nostalgia as my ability to play fades and as I retire from the volunteer coaching I’ve maintained for the past 20 or so years.
Did I mention I taught my boys how to play? That’s Zach up above:
