Frank J. Sapienza

Frank J. Sapienza is an award-winning author and practicing dentist with a penchant for uncovering the darker side of healthcare technology. Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Frank has spent decades navigating both the evolving world of dentistry and the complex ethical dilemmas of modern medical science. The youngest of five children, Frank got an early start in the family business—assisting in his father’s dental office at the age of sixteen. By twenty, he had written a dental practice management software package, a feat that gave him just enough confidence to publish a computer tutorial for dentists. Technology, especially in the healthcare field, has always been his driving passion. When commercial DNA testing services started popping up, Frank couldn’t resist diving into the ethical can of worms. What could possibly go wrong when private companies hold your genetic blueprint? His novels explore exactly that—and trust us, you’ll want to find out. When he’s not delving into medical thrillers that keep you up at night, Frank enjoys a good beach day, playing his piano, and attempting to fish in the notoriously moody waters of New York City—rarely catching anything but stories. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife, Jeanmarie, a New York City teacher, and their son, Jonathan, who likely knows far more about medical ethics than most of his peers.
