Rob TeneryRob Tenery, M.D. is an ophthalmologist, who first began his writing career when he authored commentaries dealing with current events impacting the world of health care. His expertise acquired from representing medical organizations on a local, state nd national level led him to become a monthly contributor to the nationally distributed periodical, American Medical News, from 1990-1998. It was toward the end of his tenure that he decided to pen a more comprehensive look at the evolution of his chosen profession with the publication of his first book, Dr. Mayo's Boy. He then followed up with his second and third books, In Search of Medicine's Moral Compass and Bedside Manners. Both chronicle the delivery of health care in this country from its inception, and the increasingly complex evolution of those who deliver care as they act as advocates for their patients. Marrying his high school sweetheart, Janet, was the impetus for his fourth book, Chasing the Ponytail - a coming-of-age love story set in the 1950s. Having a keen interest in the uncertainty on the world stage, Rob has written his latest novel, Insurrection at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, that combines his experience in medicine with political intrigue. Rob and Janet have two children and four grandchildren. Rob continues to practice his chosen profession, while authoring a weekly posting for his website, Diagnosis for Democracy: Insights into the State of Our Union, and is working on his next novel.
