About William Parlee

I am 75 years old and a resident of Northeast Connecticut. I am a lifelong Yankee fan, from the time my Grandfather bought our first-ever television so that he could watch the 1950 World Series. Before retiring, I was a Dept. Store District Mgr. I owned a large pet shop for almost 50 years. My hobbies are writing, cooking and photography. I've been writing about the Yankees for several years. I am a member of the Society for American Baseball Research and a Yankee Columnist for EmpireSportsMedia.com. My columns include Yankee Top 10's, Yankee Legends, and Yankee Player biographies, I also write breaking news and analysis. I welcome your comments to any of my articles.
