Abstract

Talents of flaws in a man's character may go unnoticed until forced into the public's eye by unforeseen circumstances. Samel Pandolfo, a southern-born promoter, influenced many people's lives by his charismatic personality and his business ventures. Pandolfo had a zest for life, and moved frequently through his adult career, touching many communities. His range of interests included teaching, selling insurance, building an automobile manufacturing plant, developing a health food business, and promoting a loan company. While he invested much energy and money into these ventures, they all eventually failed.
