Before embarking on a writing career, Mr. Amoroso practiced law for many years and was a senior partner in a large international law firm. "Law is a wonderful training ground for writing," says Amoroso, "It's all about communication and persuasion with the added requirement of precision." From his days on Law Review, to clerking for a Judge on New York's highest court, to working as chief of staff for a NYS Senator, to working as a prosecutor and teaching a course in White Collar Crime, to handling litigation for Fortune 500 companies, his career revolved around words, written and spoken.
