Hi! I'm Michael Rotolo. I'm a media specialist with over 30 years experience in print, graphic design, advertising and publishing methods and technologies.

I am the owner of RotoloMedia, the parent company of my book publishing house Great Christian Books.

.................................................................

I spent my earliest childhood in Brooklyn, until we moved out to Long Island, NY. I enjoyed an idyllic upbringing in Merrick, finishing my grammar school years at Birch School, moving on to Merrick Avenue Junior H.S., and finally Sanford H. Calhoun High School.

My college years were spent in Binghamton, NY where I graduated from Harpur College at S.U.N.Y. Binghamton with a Bachelors Degree in Computer Science/Mathematics. I also pursued a minor in Theatre concentrating in Dance Arts.

My early professional life was a short stint in the insurance industry which frankly I hated. During those years I lived in NYC and attended F.I.T. in the evenings studying Interior Design. With my newly acquired knowledge of Interior Design I kissed the insurance industry (and NYC) goodbye, packed it up, and moved to San Francisco where I worked for Design Express, a residential and commercial Interior Design company. God, however, had other plans for my life and after only a few years in SF it was clear that He was calling me back to my family in New York.

After a short time supporting myself as a home-improvement contractor back on Long Island, the Lord introduced me to my future in book publishing. To equip myself with the requisite knowledge to create world-class books I attended N.Y.U. in the evenings in the Book Publishing program. I've now been at book publishing and graphic design for over 35 years. I built a very successful publishing house, a 501C3, during the 90's called Calvary Press, enjoying great notoriety for Christian literature of a Calvinistic bent. (Sadly, I discovered terrible corruption within the board of directors and I made serious efforts to expose Michael Gaydosh and his malfeasance but was forced out. Calvary Press was subsequently looted and destroyed by those corrupt men, namely Michael Gaydosh and Joseph Bianchi, some background here.)

Nonetheless, the experience was a blessing and I've been richly blessed by that episode. God used it to prompt me to establish Great Christian Books and Reformation Press imprints. We are being blessed daily and continue to grow.
