Autorenporträt
Ed Helmrich graduated from Yale in 1983 with a B.A. in Mathematics and courses in Philosophy and English Literature. He finished one year of graduate Mathematics at Fordham University. During a few decades of limited action because of illness, working at Iona University library for the (Irish) Christian Brothers, he collected thoughts on faith and literature. Putting together these thoughts and assisted by those presented on EWTN, especially by Scott Hahn, the result was a set of essays and a set of collections of thoughts on different subjects. He lives in Larchmont, N.Y. and is a member of the Legion of Mary and the Knights of Columbus, and serves as lector, Eucharistic Minister, altar server and sacristan at the local Catholic Church.
