About the Author
Carl's life began in the ghetto. He became his family's "breadwinner" after his Dad died from lead poisoning.
ÊÊÊÊAt nineteen he graduated from the School of Journalism at Los Angeles City college; but finding cub reporter wages to be very low, he went to work for Pacific Iron and Steel Co., Ltd, in the Watts area where he was born.
ÊÊÊÊIn ten years time, he rose to the top of the corporate ladder where he became the creator of "Jetways" airline loading equipment.
ÊÊÊÊAfter losing his wife of 52 years to a brain surgeon's error, he entered a four-year trip into perdition and ostentatiousness in a too hasty marriage.
ÊÊÊÊThen, in his late seventies, he arose from the ashes and rode on "cloud nine" with marriage to his dear sweet Virginia, who had been his deceased wife's best friend for forty years!
