Mark Genovese Book Launch - I'm Not Famous: Don't Ever Expect To Be. 
Mark Genovese Book Launch - I'm Not Famous: Don't Ever Expect To Be. 

Mark Genovese is an ordinary man. Although his readers may find his stories extraordinary, he does not. Mark is a typical American who loves his country, his hometown, his family, and his friends. He is the person sitting next to you in the theater, across from you at a restaurant, or a row behind you at a ballgame.

When his doctors diagnosed his Parkinson's disease, they suggested that if he wrote about his life experiences, the effects of the disease might be delayed. Mark is not sure if that is true, but the chapters in this book have certainly shaped the man he is today. This is Mark's journey through life, going unnoticed while being involved in some significant historical events.
