A gritty journey of Charleston's longest-serving mayor, from gravedigger to city leader, embodying boldness and compassion, navigating political storms while connecting deeply with citizens, leaving a legacy of progress and accessibility for all. In Call Me Danny, readers are invited into the extraordinary life of Danny Jones, a man who defied the odds and transformed his city. Born into a world of privilege yet yearning for authenticity, Danny rebelled against a domineering mother and the weight of family expectations. His journey began on the streets, where he worked as a gravedigger and garbage man, experiences that shaped his understanding of the struggles faced by everyday citizens. Danny's life was a tapestry of contradictions-he was a tender-hearted man with a penchant for high-end call girls, yet he refused to exploit others. His diverse roles as a bartender, cook, and serial restaurateur showcased his entrepreneurial spirit, while his battles with alcoholism and his forays into singing and acting revealed a complex personality. As Kanawha County Sheriff and later a state legislator, Danny's political career was marked by intense leadership and a commitment to the needy. His bold approach often drew criticism, with some labeling him a bully, while others recognized his vision for a better Charleston. Accessible to all, from presidents to the common folk, Danny was a man who answered every call, embodying the spirit of a true public servant. Call Me Danny is not just a biography; it is a testament to resilience, compassion, and the relentless pursuit of progress in the face of adversity. Join Danny on this remarkable journey and discover the heart of a leader who truly cared.
