In speaking to Ty Rosenow during the Radio Conference Call meet-up on September 20th (seems like yesterday), he did not mention that he is an accomplished author. He accomplished as much as writing several books which have been published. This is in addition to having had a radio career and a very good job with the state of Washington. He even has his own office.
About the books: I like some of these titles. I haven’t read any of them. I discovered this list at GoodReads this evening.

Ty Rosenow – Everybody always wants to know more about me, the author. Like most cases, I have always had a hard time talking about myself since I feel my life is kind of boring. I was born in the mid-seventies as a fourth child. I found radio calling me when I was young, at the age of ten. Some friends and I on Vashon Island, Washington, USA ended up doing interviews of teachers and the school librarian and put it on a friend’s small radio station with a one mile radius. I must say that those friends ended up very big in television, I stuck with radio broadcasting.
In 1990, I went to my high school radio station in Gig Harbor, Washington, USA called Peninsula High School. There, I learned the basics of radio broadcasting. I graduated in 1993, and then went to Bates Technical College in 1994 to learn about broadcasting and broadcast engineering. This includes both television and radio. The television in Tacoma, Washington was a PBS affiliate. While I was at KBTC (Bates Technical College), I was laid off from the K-2 Corporation where I helped print the skis and saw a job opening at KJUN (The Country Gold Network). After a month of no pay, I went to KIRO-AM (news and talk) as a board operator and a producer for the weekend. This expanded from a simple fishing/hunting program to every other show. From there, I went to other radio stations that the company owned such as KNWX (news and business talk) and on to KQBZ (The Buzz, a talk station for guys). I worked on the morning shows and eventually moved on to Michigan.
I went to work WKLQ in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Since I hated working with certain set of people, I quit my job and moved to Ocean Shores with my parents. In Ocean Shores, Washington, USA, I co-founded a radio station called KOSW-LPFM. All radio stations I worked eventually were sold, changed formats, shut down, ratings dropped except KGHP-FM (my high school radio station) and KOSW-LPFM in which I only quit these organizations (never been fired from a radio station).
While I was in Ocean Shores and through Aberdeen, Washington, I attended Grays Harbor College, a community college with the full purpose of learning history. After three years of Grays Harbor College, I am currently at The Evergreen State College with same full purpose of learning about history and historical research.
In fall quarter of 2008, I attended The University of St. Andrews in St. Andrews, Scotland, UK for approximately three months.
Currently, at the time of this book being written, I am searching a Graduate School with the ultimate career goal of archives or teaching. While I was in college, I wrote a total of five books, Ty Roseynose: A Documentary, Ty’s Book of Rubbish: Volume 20, and Ty’s Book of Rubbish: Volume 19. I guess I should also add this book: Ty’s BIG BOOK of Rubbish: An Omnibus, and finally, Happy Land: A Novel.
Cheers! — Ty Rosenow
Nice
