From his lair at The Ledger-Star, William Ruehlmann regularly stalks big and little game for feature articles. He has even tried wrestling with a bear. A native of Cincinnati, where he gained his Ph.D., Ruehlmann served briefly in the Marines and in a National Guard panel bridge company, then worked as a chauffeur, a summer stock actor, a high school teacher, and an envelope stuffer before finding his niche in journalism. He is the author of "Saint With a Gun: The Unlawful American Private Eye" and "Stalking The Feature Story." [extracted from 1980 brochure]
