How About That!: The Life of Mel Allen »

Stephen Borelli lives in the Washington, D.C., area, where he graduated from Georgetown University and is now a baseball editor for USA TODAY.com. He has covered all levels of baseball as well as numerous other sports and has written for USA TODAY, The Washington Post, Harvard University's Nieman Reports and TENNIS Magazine. He grew up outside New York City, where he learned baseball from watching Mel Allen on This Week in Baseball and going to New York Yankees games. He began his career in the South, working for the Pensacola (Florida) News Journal, The Commercial Appeal in Memphis, and as a sportswriter in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina.

In this first biography on Mel Allen, perhaps the most famous sports broadcaster in American history, author Borell helps readers relive baseball's glorious radio days.
