William Storandt, Editor

Mr. Storandt received a B.M. from the Juilliard School of Music in 1968. He pursued a freelance career as a percussionist, ranging from xylophone at Radio City Music Hall to tambourine for the Monkees to timpani in the Vermont Symphony, before sidling into writing accounts of his travels for Cruising World, a national sailing magazine. He wrote film treatments for Yale Films, a producer of documentaries, and has been tutoring Yale undergraduates in the Bass Writing Program since 1996. His memoir of a trans-Atlantic voyage, Outbound: Finding a Man, Sailing an Ocean, was published by the University of Wisconsin Press in 2001, and his novel, The Summer They Came, was published by Villard/Random House in 2002. He was appointed to the design faculty in 2005 to assist second-year graphic design students with thesis development and writing.
