Chris RodellAfter reading Rodell's offbeat books on Arnold Palmer and Fred Rogers, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge said: Rodell writes about life the way Sinatra sings about New York, unflinching about the gritty realities, but with abiding affection and relentless ositivity about the future.He is the author of six books, including The Last Baby Boomer: The Story of the Ultimate Ghoul Pool. The premise: The last baby boomer will turn 112 in the year 2076. People will be so sick of baby boomers by then they're going to take the last one, put him in a museum and charge people $25 to be with him for 15 minutes. If they're in the room when he dies, they win the jackpot. Because everyone has to die, but only one of us gets to die last.He is an in-demand motivational speaker on fun, decency and colorful living.
