Dick Dillon’s story is of an Irish Catholic boy from Brooklyn who became a sure-minded, successful corporate leader. This book follows Dick’s journey on to Canterbury School, Princeton University, the U.S. Army and jobs in New York, Mexico, Europe, Canada, Colorado, and California. Phyllis Freschi, the girl from St. Louis who became Phyllis Dillon, was a vital force in the Richard Emmett Dillon Saga. Tales of an Irish Rebel traces a success achieved through persistence and creativity and rife with encounters with the powerful, the famous, and the infamous. Defying a common corporate image, Dick says, “I was always a rebel.” Others would call him a man of character who lives by his convictions, convictions wedded to an expansive, charismatic personality.

<p>Willard Edward Fraser (1907-1972) was mayor of Billings, Montana, during the turbulent Vietnam War era, but his reach and impact lay far beyond the borders of the Magic City. Fraser brought vision and energy to the mayor's office, using it as a platform to promote Billings and Montana to the world. He tackled air and water pollution, cleaned up urban blight, and ensured that women, youth, and minorities were not marginalized. He championed Montana's history, cultural heritage, and tourism potential. A true humanitarian, Fraser was equally comfortable rubbing elbows with high level politicians and celebrities--like his father-in-law Robert Frost--and hobnobbing with the "bums" of Skid Row. He followed his conscience even when it meant bucking the party line. No stranger to tragedy or defeat, Fraser served the people and the state he loved with optimism, dedication, and panache.</p>
