Saving the President (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781463677169)

Miles David got an insider's view of Washington and politics when he served as president of one of the broadcasting industry's national associations. His training to be a U.S. Army Infantry rifleman and his service in combat overseas as a Combat Engineer provided valuable background as he imagined America's first female president having to fend off military feints and plots by hostile governments. For insights about the romantic life of one of his book's leading characters, an Army officer, he was aided by his experience as the father of three and some tutorials on female sensibilities from his wife. He and his wife live on the upper east side of Manhattan and brought their children up in a suburb north of New York City. He is a graduate of the Bronx High School of Science and New York University. His career includes being president/CEO of the Radio Advertising Bureau; vice chairman of an ad agency; and marketing consultancy through his company, Miles David Associates, Inc. He was an editor and reporter for the Army newspaper Stars & Stripes and a magazine editor but "Saving the President" is his first fiction.
