Mark Sullivan might have sold you (or your parents) a Red Sox hat in the ’70s. As a Medfield teen, he worked a souvenir cart near Fenway Park.
He’s 62 today and living in Bozeman, Montana. He’s also a bestselling author.
While the Medfield High grad has written a few thrillers — including the “Private” series with James Patterson — his knack for World War II stories launched him to the top of the bestseller lists.

Q. Tell us about growing up in Medfield and your path to writing.
