Jack Lindy is a retired psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who has been writing narrative non-fiction and fiction since 2007. Most of his work is related to family and memoir and is not available for general distribution. Two exceptions are A Pain in the Neck, a one act play in the form of farce, about a physician who is hospitalized and receives surgery for neck cancer, selected by Cincinnati Playwright Initiative for production at the Aranoff Theatre, 2013, and the two volumes of Dream Catcher at Crockett Bluffs.
