Autorenporträt
Dan Pinger has played many roles in his long and eventful life. He raises horses. He served in the U.S. Army. He was a notably indifferent law school student. As a newspaper reporter he covered the wild and woolly days when the Mob ran Newport, Kentucky. Dan also spent some time in academia, working as an administrator at the University of Cincinnati. But it wasn't until he turned 50 that he discovered his true calling, when he founded the Dan Pinger Public Relations agency. Dan Pinger and the hundreds of "Pingerites" who worked with him offered communications counsel to clients across Cincinnati, Ohio and the nation for more than 25 years. He always said those were the most emotionally rewarding years of his career. And of course, Dan has been a son, husband, father, grandfather and lover, living through all the joy and heartbreak those roles bring. Now, in his 80s, Dan has begun scribbling some poems that deal with love, personal and business tribulations, and an 87-year-old man's consideration of what comes next. Dan published his first book of poetry, "Love, Laughter, Life and the Hereafter: Fifty-Nine Stories in Rhyme" in 2016; "The Ripley Ridge Storyteller" is the second compilation of his distinctive stories in rhyme.
