As an entrepreneur, he's also founded several successful businesses which still are operating, and lived and worked with his wife, Louise, and their three children on several continents. He was born and grew up in Michigan, and retains strong ties to the Midwest, although he and Louise now live on a houseboat in Portland, Oregon, complete with a radio studio and their mascot attack-cat, Higgins.
Links to sources, clips and lyrics of political bumper music Thom has played, plus other songs from the same sources. I can't guarantee that I always have the right artists, but I'm reasonably sure I have the right songs.
Louise Hartmann is the genius who selects the songs.
