Alan J. Converse (Questrom’65) of San Diego, Calif., published Flagship (CreateSpace, 2017) under the pen name A. J. Converse. The book, he says, “is based heavily on my experience as a naval officer in the Vietnam War, after my graduation from BU.” He has written five other novels under the same pen name. He adds that he looks back fondly on his time rowing crew under coach Jim Nesworthy during all four years at BU.
