A.P. O'Malley

A.P. O'Malley was born in Dublin, Ireland. For twenty years he lived in the United States, mostly Manhattan in New York City. O'Malley worked in a myriad of jobs throughout the last two decades: including waiting tables where he served Muhammad Ali, Francis Ford Coppola and Steven Spielberg and numerous other famous and not so famous people. As a doorman, on Fifth Avenue, he observed the many Manhattan characters and residents in their natural habitat. And later, as an options trader, he got a tiny taste of "high finance". For ten years, O'Malley taught and lectured in Baruch College-CUNY in the heart of the Big Apple. He has written eight books: two collections of short stories, three collections of poetry (under Antoin O Maille) and three non-fiction books. In January 2014 he self published his seventh book, "Leaving New York", Volume III of his poetry collection. In 2013, he wrote a non-fiction economics book, published by Cognella, Inc. It looks at the world of economics and the chasm between the reality and the theory. Recently he completed his eighth book. His next two books will be another collection of short stories: Volume III; and an investigation into the seven chakras. He is an avid biker racer and trains several times a week.
