L'autore

Roland Roberts was born on a ranch in New England. While a youngster, he was influenced by Dr. Robert Goddard, the father of Rocketry, and after serving his country in the front lines of battle, he returned to college to finish his Engineering degree on the GI bill. He was hired after receiving his degree by General Electric to work in the Missiles & Space Division and relocated to Vandenberg AFB. He was there on classified assignments to the Air Force Ballistic Space Department. He later served his country as a technical adviser to the Strategic Air Command in Omaha Nebraska for two years. He returned to Vandenberg AFB to assist in the development of the Minute Man Missile System and led the effort for down range recovery of its nosecone. Roland next accepted a contract with the GE Nuclear Fuel Design program as Senior Design Engineer for Boiling Water Nuclear Power Plants. After serving GE's desires for 15 years, he took an early retirement to build and invest in start-up companies. He was successful in his efforts and investments as he had applied his corporate knowledge and experience learned at GE. He most recently retired from his position as CEO and Chairman of Trans-Pharma Pharmaceuticals after complications with his heart. Roland has decided to pass on some of his life's experiences for all to enjoy and perhaps compare to parallels in ones' own life. His next book "Sonny" provides more insight to his development and family from an early age and his wartime activities.
