| The cover of the Audible edition of Father Ed |
I'm thrilled to announce that, following many requests from people seeking an audio version of my biography of Father Edward Dowling, SJ, Father Ed: The Story of Bill W.'s Spiritual Sponsor, Orbis Books has released Father Ed on Audible. The reader, my longtime friend Kevin O'Brien, is from Dowling's hometown of St. Louis, which adds an air of authenticity—starting with the pronunciation of Father Ed's home neighborhood of Baden (with a long "a"). Kevin has recorded more than one hundred audiobooks and does a terrific job for Father Ed. I couldn't be more pleased with this release, especially as it gives sight-impaired people and all audiobook lovers a chance to learn how Father Ed, through his friendship with Bill W., he helped shape the spirituality behind the Twelve Steps.
