Tom's Story
Life
Hello to all my old classmates. I'm really hoping I can reconnect with some old friends.
Lot's happened after I left Turner. But I'll just give you the highlights here.
Currently I'm Vice President of Helicon Holdings, a Detroit business conglomerate of hotels, restaurants, and other various enterprises. It's a big departure from my background in politcal communications but proving to be more interesting as time goes by.
Immediately prior to that I launched the last of five radio shows that I developed and produced for national syndication - The Leslie Marshall Show. I spent 2002 through 2008 developing and producing shows. They include, The Ed Schultz Show, The Stephanie Miller Show, Washington Monthly on the Radio, The Business Shrink, and The Leslie Marshall Show.
I was former...Expand for more
ly Vice President of Programming for Air America Radio, the nation's first progressive talk radio network. Prior to that I was founder and CEO of Democracy Radio, a Washington based progressive talk radio production company. I also served as a staffer in the United States Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives.
In 1996, I was elected to City Council in Oxford, Michigan serving as Council President. I was re-elected in 1999 and chose not to seek a third term in 2002.
I'm a graduate of Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan and a veteran of the United States Air Force and Air National Guard.
Sad to say, I am twice divorced but remain good friends with my former wives.
Don't hesitate to email me if you'd like to reconnect after all these years. I'd love to hear from you.
