Of Course It's True [Except for a Couple of Lies] (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

This book is a collection of stories on family, life and values. It begins with a story of the author's namesake, who came to California in 1849, in pursuit of happiness. The middle section is about a range of events in life. The final section is about beliefs - which helped guide the author's actions. The chapters tell individual stories but when read as a whole you will recognize a life full of experiences - some important, some not so much; but all comfortably wrapped in humor. Eclectic? You bet. Boring, no. The author recognizes that some people who participated in the events described in the book will remember things differently. That's OK with him. Memoirs are perceptions and not necessarily precise. The author asks readers who want 100% accuracy to write their own book.

Autor

Jonathan Brown grew up in California. He earned degrees from the University of the Pacific and a DPA from USC. He worked at the intersection of higher education and politics - first for political figures in Washington DC and Sacramento and then for an association of independent colleges and universities. While he spent a majority of his career with just one group, that was not all he did. Along the way he helped to start an insurance company; taught in several universities in the US and Mexico; and worked to improve best practices in government and nonprofit organizations. He served on a couple of national commissions, helped to develop new models of finance and worked to build linkages between US and Mexican universities.
