Lenny Cavallaro

Lenny Cavallaro is a “Renaissance man” steeped in the classics: Greek tragedy, Shakespearean drama, and classical music. He has also boxed, earned a third-degree black belt in karate, refereed futsal and soccer, run marathons, and practiced hypnosis and reiki professionally.
 
Cavallaro is the author of TROJAN DIALOGUES: THE MEMOIRS OF DIOMEDES and THE GREATEST CHAMPION WHO NEVER WAS. His interests in Shakespeare and Sophocles spawned two dramatic efforts, the one-act HAMLET, REVISITED and ODYSSEUS ACANTHOPLEX, a conjectural “completion” of fragments by the great Greek tragedian.
 
Cavallaro has recently completed SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE MYSTERIES OF THE CHESS WORLD (Russell Enterprises) and “edited and revised” PAGANINI AGITATO (Fomite Press), a novel by Ann Abelson. Both are slated for release in 2022.
 
An accomplished pianist and composer, Cavallaro performed Bach’s SIX PARTITAS to the highest critical acclaim in Carnegie Recital Hall and achieved even more recognition as a composer. In 2015, he wrote a conjectural "completion" of "Contrapunctus XIV" from Bach's unfinished masterpiece, THE ART OF THE FUGUE.
