After retiring from high school teaching and coaching in 2016, Bill Ranauro turned his time and efforts to writing. His latest offering is titled William C. Brocklesby: A Connecticut Valley Architect in the Gilded Age. Just as with his previous book, this is the biography of an important figure in the architectural and artistic history of New England. Bill has authored four other books, including Asher Benjamin: American Architect, Author, Artist; a memoir, West of Boston: Growing Up Red Sox in a Yankee Household; a local architectural history, Frontier Elegance: The Early Architecture of Walpole, New Hampshire 1750-1850, and an essay collection, Northern Light: Essays and True Stories.
When he isn’t writing, Bill loves traveling with his wife Lisa, planning his next trip to see the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, and spending time with family. Bill and Lisa live in southwestern New Hampshire and have two grown children they are most proud of, Daniel and Emily.
