Audio-Playwrights - Breve biografia
- I was born in 1946, and grew up in Manhattan, so I have my own memories of riding the Third Avenue El, of watching the Giants at the Polo Grounds, eating in old-fashioned seafood and chophouses . . . in short, of New York in its 20th Century heyday. Fascinated by science books (I still subscribe to Scientific American magazine) I went to the Bronx High School of Science, but I soon discovered that I had no head for math, and consequently no chance of becoming a scientist. In 1967 I graduated from Syracuse University, in upstate New York, and shortly afterward, moved to Hawaii, where I became a newspaper and television reporter. By the late 1970s, my old love of science led me to create a beat covering the then-new technologies of computers and telecommunications. I moved back to the mainland in 1980, and have made my living as a journalist in the computer trade press ever since. I write the Katy Green mysteries in the first person, in Katy's "voice." My technique for doing this is to think of them as having been written by someone else, a woman called Hannah Dobryn, who is writing in the years just after WWII, when the pre-war years were still a fresh memory. This enables me to keep the setting in mind, and frees me to imagine how a woman of Katy's generation would write.

Hackers put in trapdoors, so they can easily access a forbidden computer system and do what they will.
The Lightning is a hacker and his name is Joe. Of course, he is a nerd. 🙂 Anyone seeing him would recognize that about him. He loved his pocket protector and wore it everywhere, carefully choosing the pens. Even before he ever touched a computer, he loved to tinker with electronics, whether it was his electric train or the family’s television.
He makes his living taking from others, but gets in way over his head. There is a heart stopping moment or two, as his life is put on the line.
The Trapdoor is a great introduction into the world of computer hacking. It took half the book for me to get involved, but I would recommend meeting Joe and seeing what the repercussions are for crossing the line.
Hal Glatzer used his knowledge of computers to take us into his world and I enjoyed visiting it with him.
I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of The Trapdoor by Hal Glatzer.
