Mr. Friedheim celebrates an eclectic career, which has spanned more than 60 years, taking him from radio broadcasting in the late 1950s to educational consulting in the present day.

His first assignment was as the Radio-TV Officer for Army Recruiting. In that position he produced and directed a variety of programs including, "Army Bandstand," "Country Style, USA," and "The Steve Lawrence Show." His specially transcribed radio series called, "Topic of Conversation," were heard nationally on the Mutual Broadcasting Service, and won two Freedom Foundation Awards for "Creating a Better Understanding of the American Way of Life." Mr. Friedheim left the Armed Forces after four years of service, whereupon he accepted a position as director of public relations for the American Counseling Association from 1961 to 1966.

Mr. Friedheim founded with his wife, Jan, and remains active with Education Systems & Solutions, Inc., a consultation company that provides institutions of higher learning with curriculum development and accreditation services.

Highly sought after in his field, Mr. Friedheim has lent his expertise to companies such as South-Western Publishing Co., Richard D. Irwin, Inc., Johnson & Wales University, the KD Studio Actors Conservatory, CollegeAmerica, Stevens Henager College, and California College San Diego.
