WELCOME TO THE WEB-SITE

OF

Dr. Nolan Rindfleisch 

POET - SCHOLAR/ RESEARCHER

This web-site's purpose is to familiarize you with his poetry and writings, as well as some of his career accomplishments, and sports achievements. 

The poems in his self-published book titled "Fire or Water" are energetic, sometimes risqué sometimes irreverent, and provide very human descriptions of our times, adventures, and survivals. 

Out of the ordinary is his softball play on a nationally ranked 80's team.  The link to his softball career highlights the men and teams that make up senior softball.  The 80's teams today number fewer than ten nationally.  If you don't believe that there are such people and teams, take a look at the "Softball Career" page.

Dr. Rindfleisch is a poet, scholar, and Social Service professional, as you will ascertain upon reading the following short biography.
