Author Information...

Jose AstorgaIn 1986, after three years in the Marines and a short stint as an armed guard, this former Marine secured a job in a growing company. He came armed with only a high school education and no skills, other than being an Expert Marksman in the Marines. José spent 20 years in an organization and ultimately became a student of the human condition wielding the written craft to enrich the mind and the spirit. José's last ten years in management provided an in-your-face, practical view of the paradox between corporate level expectations and behavior and the human need to fill the most basic of desires- security, belonging and respect. A Bull in a Glass House is the first in what will hopefully be a series of pursuits that will benefit the earnest reader.
