My name is Donato C. Rinaldi, Jr. I was born and raised in Pennsylvania and currently live in Charleston, South Carolina. I am the author of “Charleston and the Carolina Coast” which was published in 2024.
I have been writing poetry about people, places and historic events in American history for many years. I also write about every subject imaginable. I earned dual Bachelor Degrees in Communications and England and European History. I have a Master’s Degree in Human Resources Administration and I completed coursework for a Master’s Degree in American History. I am a very close cousin of Frankie Valli from The Four Seasons and Jersey Boys fame.
I spent most of my career in Sales and Marketing working for United Way, the University of Scranton and Crossroads Hospitality. I owned and operated several of my own businesses including three Subway Restaurants, a Tastykake distribution company and an entertainment/music disc jockey business.
I spent 20 years with the Lions Club serving as President as well as a Regional Chairman for Lions Club International. I currently have about 25 unpublished books that I would like to publish soon.
