Author Bio:
Bill started his career in West Texas working his way through Texas Tech as a photographer and writer for the local newspaper and working in the campus radio and television stations while getting a BA and MA in broadcasting and journalism.
After graduating he went to the University of Texas at Austin as director of both a four-city instructional television network and the university’s four channel instructional television system. While there he also taught graduate level TV courses and worked on a doctorate in mass communications.
From Austin, Bill moved to Ohio where he accepted a position at Bowling Green State University’s new television station to become their Director of Instructional Television and Special Projects.
Bill then moved to Washington, DC where he started his own communications consulting firm. His clients included trade associations, corporations, and many government agencies including the Army and Navy, the Postal Service, the Departments of Transportation and Housing and Urban Development, the White House, and the Secret Service. He was also asked to take a one-year contract as FEMA’s first Director of News and Information when that agency was first created. Some of the many events he was involved with included Three-Mile Island, Mt. St. Helens, and the Cuban Refugee Boatlift. While in Washington he was elected national president of the Independent Media Producers’ Association and, as a registered lobbyist, helped get several laws passed to help independent producers.
In addition to his professional work, while in Washington Bill was asked to take a part-time position at the University of Maryland teaching Advanced Television News Production.
After 20 years in Washington, Bill decided to change careers and move back to Ohio as a Registered Investment Advisor to give his two young daughters the chance to grow up around friends and relatives … a chance that he never had growing up in a military family and moving often enough for him to have attended 14 different schools before graduating.
Now he’s publishing a series of books entitled 20 Years of Internet Humor … and Some Other Interesting Things based upon decades of sending out a “Thought for the Day” through the internet.
