At 86, former FCC Chairman and Commissioner James H. Quello is as busy as ever. Quello also has a new girlfriend. He's keeping company with a longtime family friend from Detroit, Carol Ann Benzi, the mother of former FCC aide Daren Benzi.
Friends say it's serious.
Five Star Adcrafter James H. Quello, the former WJR Radio general manager and member of the Federal Communications Commission, is writing his memoirs, aptly titled My Wars . The book will contain forewords from the top ranked Democratic and Republican communications leaders in Congress, Senators Ted Stevens and Fritz Hollings and Congressmen Billy Tauzin and John Dingell. James Quello was to the FCC what James cagney was tot the movies - fiesty, dedicated, charismatic and, most of all, unrepentant. They were both leading men in thier own ways. For more than two decades, Jim Quello was a trailblazer when it came to developing sound telecommunications policy for America.
