He graduated college with degrees in the arts and theatre and post graduate degrees in Performing Arts Management and Play Direction and was a Graduate Fellow at Wayne States prestigious Hilberry Repertory Theatre. Prior to entering the corporate world, he developed audiences for several different performing arts venues.
He has said that the business of show business is simple as it is an ass in every seat, providing there is a good product on the stage.
In his lifetime he has sold radio advertising, vacuums, violets, Volvos, and other various products and services. He owned a billiard parlor-tavern, held credentials as a financial advisor, taught special education in an autistic unit, and delivered seminars on pre-need funeral arrangements.
He ascended from the position of a sales engineer directly to increasing levels of sales management, eventually reaching the position of National Sales Manager for a global communications company. During that period he consistently qualified for performance above plan recognitions and bonuses.
A former avid sailor and fisherman, John, (who goes by Doc to his friends) has traveled extensively, cruised the Bahamas, fished a couple of oceans and seas, swam with and lassoed sharks in Bora Bora, was awed by the Northern Lights in Anchorage, witnessed the green sunset flash from Moorea, watched Mona Kea erupt from a small plane, and lounged, beer in hand, in a hammock watching a Tahitian dance group rehearse on a black sand beach in Papeete among other eclectic experiences.
He got his first writing job at 16, covering the waterfront for his hometown weekly newspaper for the grand sum of $.50 a column inch.
Today an artist and writer, John lives in Jacksonville, Florida with his wife, Beth, herself a top performer in her industry.
