Richard L. Rotelli has always enjoyed reading biographies, but since his retirement he has found that writing biographies of fascinating people is even more enjoyable than reading them. Born in Framingham, Massachusetts, he graduated from Framingham High School and went on to earn a BSME from Worcester Polytechnic Institute. He has held management positions in aerospace companies as well as commercial sector businesses. Always a story-teller by nature, his writings have been enjoyed by many readers. Mr. Rotelli and his wife, Patricia, live in Massachusetts. They have four children, seven grandchildren and three step-grandchildren.
