That afforded him the opportunity to travel to Alaska and several foreign countries around the world. They included Canada, Mexico, Pakistan, Turkey, Afghanistan, Iran, and Saudi Arabia.
Returning home to St. Louis, he worked his way through several unfulfilling jobs. Moving to Miami in 1976, he joined the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department, rising through the ranks from firefighter to division chief. He retired in 2003 after serving more than twenty-seven years of dedicated and dangerous public service. He acknowledged and highlighted experiences he gathered from both of those careers generously throughout “The Majesty – Into the Fog.”
In 2013 Mr. Laden published his first novel, entitled “Lead Story.” It’s about an ambitious but seriously flawed television reporter who teams up with a sadistic Miami serial killer in order for both men to increase their profiles and achieve their separate goals. Mr. Laden will publish his third novel soon, which is tentatively entitled “Potential – Regrets and Rewards.” It is a semibiographical novel detailing people he has met who impacted his life both positively and negatively throughout his many travels here in the United States and abroad.
In 2012 Mr. Laden formed his own public relations company, Laden Productions of South Florida, LLC. He hopes to continue to develop writing, publishing, and other projects in the future. His wife, Darlene, and son, Edward R. Laden Jr., are both enthusiastic ocean cruisers (she has sailed over sixty times, and he has sailed twenty-seven times and counting). This novel is a result of his imagining the worst possible scenario one could encounter on one of these splendid ships.
Mr. Laden is an optimistic, easygoing, adventurous type of “people person” who encourages positive interaction among authors and readers of all ages. He resides in the Miami, Florida, area and is constantly involved in writing, publishing, and public relation endeavors.
