Just Another Dick, The Presumptuous Memoir of a Truly Unimportant Person is the riotous story of a man whowho started at the bottom as a jerk of all trades, made all the wrong choices, but eventually rose to respectability in an unconventional way.

Dick's adventures or misadventures began when he was kicked out of college, went to work in Atlantic City tending bar before he was old enough to legally drink, had a sixteen-hour engagement to a childhood sweetheart, served two wacky years in the Army in Germany post WWII, and talked his way into a respectable career in radio sales, eventually becoming the youngest General Manager of a New York City radio station.

As Dick carved out his offbeat life's journey, he also operated a racetrack for cars and motorcycles, did a bit of modeling, worked for Ed Koch in his successful race for Congress in New York City's silk-stocking district and did a bunch of charity art shows for worthy causes.

All his crazy experiences unexpectedly led he and his wife to start an advertising firm that morphed into the music industry's premier, go-to agency.

Just Another Dick's story is about an exceptional life, humorously told, with its many bumps along the way. It’s a beautiful (and funny!) illustration of how a mid-twentieth century young man took the road less traveled, and still ended up where he wanted to be.
