Jack Dieteman is a high school graduate and retired letter carrier from New Jersey whose teenage years were shaped by roller-skating culture, roller-rink romances, and a long-distance romance that stayed with him for decades.He is heavily involved in his local classic car club and spent thirty years umpiring men's slow-pitch softball, an experience that taught him to see things clearly, often in black and white. Drawing from real events and the original letters, photos, and memories he preserved, Jack brings to life the world of late-'70s and early-'80s youth with honesty, humor, and heart. "As The Wheels Turn" is his debut book.
