Bob’s a war-baby born in Camden N.J., June ’42. Next year he’ll be celebrating his 82nd birthday, with full trimmings, and possibly an extra class of wine–with his Japanese family, and friends. He moved to Japan in 1989 to set restorations and challenges in place for – “Round Two,” to unfold.
Bob was an engineering student at Purdue, but decided on a finance career, which led to his membership–as a floor broker–on the New York Stock Exchange, from 1978 to 1988.
Since 1989, he has been living in Japan. He established Top Ten, for Business People, as well as the Top Ten E D – Culture Center with his ( former ) wife Junko, which included a nursery school for pre-K kids.
Bob lives with his daughter, now 25. He continues to teach, keeps busy with his writing, and connections to the Catholic church, for lessons directed to Bible history, and theology.
His identity has been restyled over the years, and is now a composite of two cultures, and the linguistic directions that are lived through spoken words, and characteristics found in the mainstreams of Oriental, and Occidental societies.
Bob has NOT gotten carried away. Again & Again is an 1800 page book which might seem TOO FAT for the current times, and too demanding for readers wanting easy-reads. But life’s a long trip, and our roads to sanctity takes us through the ins-and-outs of pottery barns that molds each one of us into the perfections bound to His love, and His eternal salvation. A big-book, is a small part of a long-road, ( don’t you think ) ?
Thank you – Bob Constantino
