Just Another Dick, The Presumptuous Memoir of a Truly Unimportant Person is the riotous story of a man who 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, spent two wacky years in the Army in post WWII Germany, ran a car and motorcycle racetrack, talked his way into a respectable career in radio sales, eventually becoming the youngest General Manager of a New York City radio station. He also worked for Ed Koch in his successful campaign for Congress before starting an advertising agency with his wife that morphed into the music industry's premier go-to agency.
Just Another Dick's story is about an exceptional life, in a bygone era, 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. Proving that if he can do it, anyone can.
