Richard a Zmuda

Richard Zmuda has co-authored a pair of non-fiction books for cancer survivors (I Flunked My Mammogram: What Every Woman Needs To Know About Breast Cancer; I Flunked My PSA: What You Need To Know About Prostate Cancer Now!). For twenty years he served as the editor of the Johns Hopkins Breast Center's online patient educational magazine, Artemis. After the passing of his first wife from breast cancer, he wrote an anecdotal autobiography, A Father's Notes, excerpts from which were published in Chicken Soup for the Soul and Chicken Soup for the Single Parent's Soul. Richard has also written a play for middle-school and high-school students, Apollo 11: Original Adaptation for the Stage, to inspire a new generation of space scientists, and he published a children's book, 'Cuz That's Just My Way, that offers a beautiful lesson on tolerance.
