Meet The Author: Tim Norbeck
Tim will discuss how he came to write novels after his retirement from a 53-year career in healthcare, but he will also mention his
sometimes amusing role in an unprecedented RICO class action lawsuit on behalf of the 850,000 practicing physicians in the U.S. against an egregious managed care insurance industry (2001-2003). It was a most interesting "David vs Goliath" type case, the settlement ( which Tim had presided over) being carried live on CNN.
He has published four novels, with his fifth ( "Mr. Lawrence")
having recently come out. In his novels, he has weaved into the stories some of the interesting people that he has met during his career—Martin Luther King, Jr., Jesse Owens, an amusing
encounter with Senator Ted Kennedy and Dr. Christian Barnard
(first heart transplant surgeon) and many politicians among them, with some interesting anecdotes about them and others.
It should be a lively hour of discussion, and there will be some
memorable and cogent quotations and laughs as well.
