Anthony lived in Europe for ten years working for Firestone International, first as sales manager for the Eastern Europe and Mediterranean region based in Vienna, and later as Sales Manager for Europe, Africa and the Middle East, based in London. Reassigned to Akron, Ohio, he was responsible for exports to the Far East and the Western Hemisphere. Anthony was next assigned to Bilbao, Spain, to manage Firestone’s minority interest in its Spanish subsidiary and to develop business strategies for the Middle East and Africa.

He was promoted to Director; Marketing, Strategic Planning and Technology Transfer for the Firestone World Group, based in Akron, Ohio. He implemented specific strategies in Korea, Algeria, Peru, Russia and many other countries.

Working with joint venture partners in the UK and Korea, Anthony personally founded a new tire company and wheel manufacturing facility in Tennessee to supply the US with industrial tires. His company also exported specialty tires worldwide and implemented a turnkey facility in Tel Aviv to supply bulletproof tires to the Israeli Army, among other projects.

After selling the tire company to a joint venture partner, Anthony joined Universal Electronics in Cleveland, Ohio, a start-up, technology company, where he was responsible for licensing proprietary technology on the Pacific Rim. Based in Anaheim, CA and Tokyo, he focused on Japan, Korea, Mexico and China, managing consumer relations with the largest Asian electronics manufacturers.

He is a Past President of the West Point Alumni of Northern Ohio, where he helped found the Veterans Transition Home, working with the Mayor of Cleveland.

Anthony currently resides in Huntington Beach, California, with his wife and family.

A sample from his book is below:

The blast killed a dozen worshipers at the Beth Israel synagogue in
downtown Istanbul, attracting international news coverage. It was a
significant event for Mahir Hakki. Now, for the first time in centuries,
he thought, we are taking the fight to them.

The rusty old car that Mahir and his friend Jamal had loaded with
explosives had rolled slowly down the hill, crashing through the door
below a Star of David. Mahir was careful to push the button on the
remote control a microsecond after, when only the foreign Zionists were
near the car. He wanted to make sure that no innocent countrymen of
his would be hurt. Mahir told his friend, “We want our patriots to
understand the struggle. Then all of them will join in jihad.”

Back in the spring of 2004 when Mahir was working in the only tire
store the Turkish European Trading Company had been able to hold on
to, Gregory P. Mount, the vice president for marketing at Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Company, came to Istanbul with his wife and son,
taking a sentimental journey back to where he had started out so many
years before. He could not resist walking by the old store and talking to
the guy there about tires.

“I remember when this was just a used tire shop,” he told the worker.
