About the Author:
Joseph J. Dougherty was born in Detroit in a cold and stormy February night in the year 1939. In 1947, at the age of 8 years old, his mother, together with him and his brother, ran away from her abusive husband to Florida, where they would be safe and far from him.

For Joseph, his time in Daytona Beach growing up was the best. He and his brother had fun in the ocean and the beach and went fishing in the river and hunting in the woods.

In 1958, he graduated high school. He took two years of college. He and his best friend headed to California in his MG sports car and this trip lasted three months. When he returned, he realized that it was time to get serious about life. He started an auto parts business which he later sold.

He worked as an account executive for thirteen years. He successfully opened the largest fireplace store in sixty-nine countries for thirty years. At seventy, Joseph is retired and residing in Ormond Beach, Florida.
