His interest in Latin jazz led to work with Mongo Santamaria, Willie Bobo, Moacir Santos, Francisco Aguabella, Pete Escovedo, and Cal Tjader (including Cal's Grammy-winning Concord Jazz recording "La Onda Va Bien").

As an educator, Mark authored "

In 1996, he completed "The Jazz Theory Book," with similar success. In 2006 he authored the definitive book on Drop2, titled "The Drop2 Book".  Jazz Times named "The Jazz Theory Book" as the #1 choice in its "recommended basic jazz library".
