Short Life History

GERALD DAMON ADENT MUELLER, M.M.C. His birthplace no longer stands. It was a hospital in Tacoma Park, Maryland, a small breakfast community outside the nation’s capital, Washington D.C.  After living in two state institutions, seven foster homes and 16 schools, he broke out of the bondage of institutional life at the age of 15. For the next three years he would spend hitchhiking around the country poverty-stricken, illiterate and abandoned.

Eventually, his travels landed him in Central Arizona where the car he was driving broke down on the Tempe “Mill Avenue Bridge in 1973. That would be the last of his wondering/traveling days. He would stay in Arizona where he married and had two sons, and after a 20-year construction career, he eventually pursued an education in journalism, making sure for the next seven education years, every step he would take would be a means to a successful writing career.

After earning a prestigious Master’s Degree at Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Telecommunications, he started writing for every type of publication that would contract his services.

His first professional publications took place during a two-year internship, working for Maricopa County Community College District. For two years, he advanced his writing and publishing goals by writing weekly newsletter feature stories and designing several business web sites, authoring several business manuals and performing desktop publishing –from business cards to sophisticated business plans–and special articles published in newspapers and online throughout Arizona.

Today, he has scores of published web sites including fourteen sites which he maintains social media web development on a monthly upgrade basis.

In addition to writing his own biography, he has authored a book: Life of a Barber—The DOs & TABOOs, a story of a man’s journey, which was similar his own.

Now embarking on a career in publishing, Mueller has aspirations of publishing an online newspaper dedicated to preservation of our natural habitat and exposing injustices and waste in the American political system.

His political posture can be viewed on social media platforms such as Twitter and his Facebook page at: Gerry Mueller, Special to the Press.

Life of a Barber – The DOs & TABOOs

Life of a Barber—DOs & TABOOs, like all great love stories, starts with a journey. This biography portrays a love of family that stretches across the globe, from America to Italy and back, where the Tenuta family values put John Tenuta on a path to love, family, prosperity and liberty.
Born in the United States, immigrated to Italy at the age of three, John survived the ravages World War II. He was raised in the Tenuta Neighborhood outside of the Provence of Cosenza, Italy.
Having first-hand experience of American bombing raids, he tells his story orally due to the fact that his childhood didn’t afford him the privilege of an education.
Illiterate and impoverished—from the worst imaginable living conditions of poverty and war—at 18, John returned to the United States and became a successful business owner, homeowner and a loving husband and father in seven years. His family values, integrity and belief in American freedoms motivated him to produce this book: Life of a Barber – The DOs & TABOOs.
It has been my unique experience working with John Tenuta, a retired barber, who was born at a time and into circumstances which would have stifled many.
Each section describes different stages of John’s life and career as a barber. He considers experience as the best teacher and wishes to depart tips of information, DOs & TABOOs, to help others learn from his own experiences and help others avoid obstacles wherever possible.
The DOs & TABOOs sections at the end of each chapter are devoted to Johns’ thoughts concerning business ethics and family values. Useful or not, they are free advice to anyone who reads Life of A Barber – The DOs & TABOOs
In the final chapter, John takes his DOs & TABOOs to a more personal family and friend’s level. You will read his proscribed strings at several points to stress the importance of his family values.
Definitions for the purpose of this book:
DO – An action or thought proscribed by society as proper or acceptable to execute
TABOO – An action or thought proscribed by society as improper or unacceptable (Dictionary.com)
John’s life, working over barber chairs is full of stories about men who came into his barber shop to get haircuts, talk about their lives, complain about their jobs—and tell barber jokes.
