R. Don Steele's first job was in the heart of Appalachia, the Saturday telephone operator in his home town population 258. He earned ten cents an hour. At 16, he worked as an embalmer's assistant. The next summer, he was an oiler of strip mining equipment, a muddy, cold, dreary, dangerous task. Those jobs convinced him to get an education. He worked for 20 major corporations and the Republican National Committee.He attended Clarion State, Penn State, USC and Cal State Fullerton to earn a BA in Philosophy and Cal State Northridge for his MA in Psychology. Beyond writing, other passions include a deep, abiding hatred for hypocrites, bureaucrats, poverty pimps and nearly all politicians; a… lifelong devotion to psychology, evolutionary psychology, anthropology, and cosmology. He lives in Whittier CA. TV and RADIO Montel Williams, Jenny Jones, Dick Clark's THE OTHER HALF, To Tell The Truth, A&E's Love Connection, The X Show and many LA TV shows.
