Today's Featured Biography
Shel King
After graduating NHS, attended U of M Institute of Technology where I received a BS in Physics; an MS in Physics/EE -- and even got a good start towards a PhD. But, alas, the California aerospace industry and the prospect of earning a good salary beckoned; so it was off to the West Coast of California.
In 1966, as a Research Engineer at North American Rockwell ("NAR"), worked on defense-related projects including the building/testing of laser tracking device prototypes. Subsequently learned that this early work contributed to effective final devices used by the Air Force in Viet Nam and beyond.
While at NAR, headed up a Military Amateur Radio Service ("MARS") effort which provided free radio-telephone connections between Air Force personnel in Viet Nam and their families back in the US. One high point in providing this public service was to, in 1968, receive a personal visit and commendation from then-General of the Air Force, Curtis E. LeMay!
After several years with Rockwell, the opportunity arose to "go-international" as a Systems Engineer for Motorola in Tel Aviv. It was there that I met my lovely wife, Genia; where our daughter, Ro, was born; and where I experienced the awe of walking the same grounds as did our Biblical ancestors!
In 1975, Motorola transferred me to its facility in Plantation, Florida; and this part of the country has been our home since.
Some key highlights while living here in the Ft. Lauderdale area...
* Son Dan was born
* Was elected to "Senior Member" grade within the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers)
* Transitioned from hardware-design to computer-related work -- software-design/applications; program-- and higher-level management.
* Prior to retiring in 2006, served as Acting Director of the Broward Sheriff's Office Communications Technology Division.
* Enjoyed many memorable family cruise/tour vacations -- including a 45-day odysee encompassing Europe and the Middle-East.
Other Hobbies/Interests include: Jogging, Bridge-Playing; Public Speaking (ATM Toastmaster) and Internet Communication with family and friends.
