His writing has appeared in the Boston Globe, Boston Herald, History Magazine, Yankee Magazine, Boston Magazine and elsewhere. A published and produced playwright, his musical about the Boston Red Sox (The Curse of the Bambino) premiered at Boston's Lyric Stage in 2001 and still ranks among the most successful productions in this equity theater's history. INSEPARABLE is David's first published novel. It is based on the 1962 escape of three men from Alcatraz in a homemade raft. It was published by DX Varos in June, 2022, the sixtieth anniversary of the escape.
