About the Book
This book is dedicated to my students who over the years inspired me and instilled in me a greater love of this profession. -Joseph Rue
About the Author
Joseph Rue (Joe) was born and grew up in Brooklyn. This is where his story began. As a youth, his family moved from New York to Madrid, Spain. A love of traveling and a wanderlust were an integral part of his life. He experienced different cultures having lived in Spain for ten years and having spent time in Ireland and China. Furthermore, he visited countless other countries.
This book consists of a compilation of stories which he experienced over the course of his lifetime. Hopefully, you will find these to be interesting, fun, and in some cases, funny. His first love was teaching which he cultivated for close to 40 years and which plays a major role in these stories. Joe had the privilege of teaching one year at St. John's Prep, one year at Fordham Prep, and 37 years at Rye Country Day School. He received great pleasure teaching Biology and Forensic Science, and thoroughly enjoyed working with his talented and enthusiastic students. Along with being a science teacher, Joe has been a fencing coach since 1987 when he started the fencing program at Rye Country Day School.
Joe is currently retired and lives in Hartsdale, NY. He is married to his wife who he met in Tokyo, Japan. Joe continues his travels and still visits his family in Madrid usually twice a year.
