Writer in Guilford, Connecticut

I am a longtime book-publishing executive with industry connections. Ghost-written titles to be published in 2023-202... include a no-holds-barred look at a murder case that caught the world’s attention; an insider's look at U.S. Presidential summit meetings with the world's iconic leaders; a wrenching and undiscovered history of an American trench-runner in World War I; a moving account of an American businessman who returns to his native North Korea to help; and a chilling look at early polar exploration. My recent work also includes a new edition of The New York Times best-selling From Baghdad, With Love. Jay Kopelman, a Marine colonel in besieged Fallujah, Iraq, whose struggle to adopt a young puppy amid the chaos and carnage of war is recounted in the book, said this about working with me. “As a New York Times and international best-selling author, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a number a of co-authors. Only when I worked with Tom McCarthy on my best-selling book, From Baghdad, With Love, did I understand how truly fortunate I was to have a professional writer/editor like Tom on my team. He is thoughtful, creative, witty, and possessing of a keen eye and ear for true story telling. I will only work with Tom McCarthy as a co-writer/editor on all future projects.” My projects have won have won a Harvard University Book of the Year, a Readers Digest Top Summer Book, an Esquire Year's Five Best Reads, a Sports Illustrated Top Book of the Year, an American Library Association, Best Non-Fiction, and a Runner's World Best Book of the Year, among others. More than 50 published books in nonfiction genres including: memoir, sports, health and fitness, business, adventure, and true crime.
