Today's Featured Biography
Per Ahlstrom
Went back to Sweden after graduation, spent two more years in high school. Spent one year in the Swedish army (which in those days did not participate in wars, thank God). Then two years at the Chalmers University of Technology - no exam. Married my first wife, Eva, in 1968. Decided to become a journalist. Exam in 1971. Worked two years for a utility in their information department with info on nuclear power. Bought a classic car, a 1939 Citroen B11 Commerciale in 1971.
In 1973 I started working for the Metal Worker. In 1975 I was back in Waterford/Detroit to write a story on the crises in the auto industry. Became editor-in-chief in 1978. Started out with a six-week vacation, travelling the US in a motor home. While visiting Mike Skelton (class of '65) in California, we learned that our daughter was on her way. Came back to Waterford again at the end of the trip. In 1979 I was on a speaking tour in the US, and once again visited Waterford.
In 1983 I became press secretary to the Swedish minister of energy. Stayed for two years and than moved to a town 300 miles north of Stockholm and became editor of two local daily newspapers. Divorced and remarried in 1992.
In 1997 I came to the US to write a book on employee ownership. I spent most of the time in Kent, Ohio, but came to Waterford to see some friends.
I quit my job in 2000, when the papers merged with the local competitors. Started my own business in free lance journalism, business consulting, leadership training. I wrote books, political commentary, managed a venture capital project and did anything people asked me to do.
Divorced again in 2005.
Just before Christmas 2007, the above mentioned Mike Skelton asked if I wanted the Swedish representative for his new company, which would help foreign companies establish themselves in the US. My home room teacher, Mrs White-Pearsall-Groenwald invited me to a birthday party in the summer of 2008, and I came over to the US to meet Mike and attend the birthday party. To pay for the trip I bought a 1966 Mustang to bring back to Sweden to sell. That was when I met Leanne Poffenberger again, after 44 years of no contact. Two years later we were married and no hope to live happily forever after.
