Author of the multi-award-winning "Tropic of California: The Strains of Strauss" and numerous socio-political essays, he is particularly interested in interpersonal communication and love relationships. He currently lives in New Mexico, in his words, taking a well-earned break from the L. A. freeways. "Jazz is one of the most universally effective means of communication I know, " says Kaufman.
