John Riley retired in 2016 after leading government relations for two global corporations. In 2017 he joined former Philadelphia Eagle Kevin Reilly as co-author of his book, Tackling Life and followed that success with his award winning book: Delaware Eyewitness: Behind the Scenes in the First State.
Active in golf for many years, Riley turned his attention to the story of one of the game's forgotten heroes, three time Ryder Cup team member, Ed "Porky" Oliver. How He Played the Game focuses on Oliver and the other pros who served their country during WWII and built the modern golf tour.
Riley is a graduate of the University of Delaware, where he captained the golf team. He is a past recipient of the annual award of the Delaware State Golf Association for contributions to the game of golf. John and his wife Sharon live in Wilmington. They have three children and seven grandchildren.
In this episode Kevin Walsh and John Riley discuss John's experiences and broad knowledge of the Game of Golf. The two have a spirited discussion that any golfer or even non-golfer would find fascinating. If you love golf, then you are a friend of mine!
