Frank S Joseph's “Chicago Trilogy” novels [To Love Mercy, To Walk Humbly, To Do Justice] tell a story of lives forever changed by the racial turmoil that marked and marred Chicago at mid century, a great city going up in flames.

Frank lived it. He came of age as a privileged but naive White boy growing up in the ‘40s and ‘50s in Hyde Park and Kenwood, neighborhoods at the time facing racial turnover and “white flight” ... and his young adulthood as an Associated Press correspondent covering the ‘60s riots that wracked Chicago’s inner city. These life experiences undergird the Chicago Trilogy.

Frank came to Washington in 1969, landing at The Washington Post during Watergate. He went on a career founding and co-founding numerous award-winning publishing companies, and creating award-winning direct marketing campaigns as a consultant to fellow publishers.

He and his wife Carol Jason, an artist and sculptor, live just outside Washington DC in Chevy Chase MD. They are the parents of Sam and Shawn, and the grandparents of Kai.
