8 Track: The First Mobile App (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781507712351)

I've been writing business stories in Detroit for more than 20 years. Nearly every culture in the world has a presence here, or visits on a regular basis. That's what makes the Motor City tick, along with world-class manufacturing facilities, from hundreds of tool shops, tech centers, R&D Facilities, and stamping and assembly plants. There's a thriving art and music scene, a growing tech community, one of the nation's highest homeowner rates, and on and on. Right now, I am editor of "DBusiness" magazine and "DBusiness Daily News." And from 1990 to 2006, I was a business writer for the "Detroit News." That's a lot of stories. I had my first book published in 2013, "Passport to the Corner Office: The Starter's Guide to Corporate Life." It's geared to high school, college, and graduate students, or anyone looking to successfully navigate the corporate world. Next up is a book about Detroit Aircraft Corp., which was founded in 1922 by Edsel Ford, William Stout, and others. There's also a children's book, along with a detective series, which hopefully are all out this year. Apart from that, I attend 200-plus corporate and charitable events each year, including the North American International Auto Show, industry conferences, cultural ceremonies, charitable fundraisers, speeches, and anniversaries. I also sit on the boards of Detroit Aircraft, Brazen Sports, Beyond Basics, Asian Pacific American Chamber of Commerce, Detroit Athletic Club Executives Club, and the Brother Rice Business Alliance. In addition, I am on the board of trustee of The Parade Co. "8 Track" is dedicated to my Dad, our family, and anyone who appreciates game-changing technology. And so we never forget that a generation can create and launch a product that changes the world. And all within nine month's time. For inquiries: rjking@rjkingpublishing.com
