OttoMatic
Otto Graham
by Duey Graham
In celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Otto Graham's
retirement from the Cleveland Browns at age 33, Otto's son
Duey has written his late father's biography, OttoMatic.
Asked to revive a dormant sports column for his hometown
weekly newspaper, Duey's experience and success there gave
him the confidence to fulfill a dream. Using dozens of
family scrapbooks for reference--a collection started by
Otto's mom when he was in grade school--Duey bumped his
equity loan and began writing. Four years of priceless
quality-time with his father and two bumps later, Duey's
collection of stories morphed into OttoMatic. Although the
Graham's lost their patriarch in late 2003, Duey is proud
that Otto's words and deeds live on among the amusing and
poignant anecdotes told by his family and others whose lives
"Automatic Otto" Graham touched.
OttoMatic can be purchased for $29.95 plus shipping and
handling at www.imortalinvestments.com, ottograham.net, or
