Bob Vanderberg

Bob Vanderberg grew up in Chicago's west suburbs and attended his first White Sox game--a jarring ninth-inning loss to the Yankees--in 1954. He has been waiting ever since for that magical time when Chicago dominates the American League as New York has. Retired after nearly 40 years on the Chicago Tribune's sports staff, he is the author of five previous books, three of them on the White Sox. He lives in Lemont, Illinois.
