Maury Dean

Dean wrote another book in 2011 titled Billionaire Bingo: Saving Our Endangered Middle Class (ISBN 0-9726249-3-7).

[2] While in college in the early 1960s, Dean wrote a book entitled The Hanging Gardens, about the teenage angst of attending high school in post-recession era Detroit, and having nothing much to look forward to except the long hours and boredom of building Fords on the assembly line at the River Rouge plant.

It has been hinted that the hit TV series “Happy Days” was loosely based upon the unfinished manuscript of “The Hanging Gardens”.

Dean's son, Jeremy, is the keyboardist for the band Nine Days, whose song "Absolutely" hit #6 on the Billboard charts.

[2] Dean's passion for running originally began as a way to lose some weight before he discovered how much he enjoyed it, leading to him to this present day still being an active runner.
