A.K. Vitberg was born and raised in Buffalo, NY and now resides with his wife Janice, near his three adult children, on a two-acre wooded lot in New York State’s Finger Lakes Region. After an award-winning career in marketing and advertising he wrote his debut novel, The King of Kreskin Avenue, reflecting on his coming of age in the turmoil of the 1960’s and its similarities to the turmoil of today.

When not making up stories for his grandchildren or telling his never-ending supply of world class Dad Jokes to his children, you can find him, Collings guitar in hand, flat picking fiddle or swing tunes in local venues or jamming with friends at music festivals all over the Northeast.

A Tale of Two Citizenship Ceremonies

I don’t remember another time or event where I felt prouder to be an American, or more infused with a spirit of patriotism and love of country.

July 4, 2016 was beautiful, hot, and sunny. Janice and I planned to spend it at the Genesee Country Village and Museum in Mumford, NY. – a recreated historic village showing what life was like in the Genesee Valley’s 19th-century America.

It wasn’t our first

A well written ethnic family saga that takes place in Buffalo, NY over 100 years. Great story telling that jumps between past and present with great attention to moving the story arc towards its dramatic conclusion. Put this book on your read list.

A.K. K. Vitberg liked Cindy Marsch's review of The King of Kreskin Avenue: "(No rating because I edited this book.) I loved editing this gem of a novel. Alan Vitberg beautifully conveys 1960s Buffalo (and other eras like the Depression and locales like a military hospital in the Pacific) to tell a tale that moves as our lives" Read more of this review »
