Robert L. Caleo is a retired communications practitioner. His 35-year business career included experiences as a technical writer, magazine editor and public relations manager. Since his retirement from Bell Laboratories in 1989, he has remained active in two of his long-time avocations-writing on historical subjects and teaching at the college level. Mr. Caleo's history articles have appeared in such publications as Golf, MacLean's (Canada), Naval Aviation News, and Rutgers Magazine. This book is a culmination of both his writing and teaching pursuits. He has had three Farragut profiles-on the admiral, his father and his son-published in periodicals, and he has conducted courses on family history and memoir writing at Ocean County College in Toms River, New Jersey. Mr. Caleo holds degrees from Rutgers University and New York University.
