Step into the life of a man who schmoozed, mingled and befriended celebrities, corporate presidents, major league ball players, big name fighters, rogues and Mafioso. Walk with David LeVine through his multiple careers in sales and management with Xerox and American Express, his rewarding work in TV and radio broadcasting and his part-ownership in a doomed Las Vegas nightclub.Enjoy humorous anecdotes and vignettes about luminaries such as Frank Sinatra, Jamie Farr, Lee Greenwood and the late Yankee manager Billy Martin.Many only dream of having experiences like LeVine's. He never imagined becoming a blow-by-blow fight broadcaster; a TV sports anchor, or a successful corporate sales manager, yet he achieved all three.Read about his triumphs and setbacks and learn how timing, a little talent and a sense of humor can get one through almost anything.
