Dal LaMagna

Dal is presently running www.IceStoneUSA.com a company that makes counter tops out of recycled glass and cement in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

With his friends Waly and Carla Reuben Carbone Dal wrote Raising Eyebrows, A Failed Entrepreneur Finally Gets It Right. After making every mistake one can make in business he finally succeeded with Tweezerman Corporation which he built it into a multi-national, premier, personal care tool brand that practiced responsible capitalism. The book's intention is to inspire and teach people how to start and operate a small business and do it responsibly. The failures Dal went through are profiled including: Cupid Computer, one of the original computer dating services (1967), Dr. Ezariah’s Little’s Traveling Light show which turned Drive-in Movie theatres into Drive-in Discotheques (1969); Aquarack, a waterbed store in Harvard Square (1971); Beelzebub’s Ice Cream Parlor, in Venice Beach, California (1975). He ran the Film School and Restaurant at the Orson Welles Cinema Complex in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Besides his run for President of the USA in 2007, Dal has run for U.S. Congress twice, in 1996 and 2000, in New York’s 3rd Congressional District. He ran for the office of Oyster Bay Town Supervisor in 1997. Fortunately he lost every one of those races. "I probably wouldn't have liked the life I would have to live as an elected official." he now says and advises people to fear success rather than failure.

He Executive Produced four Iraq War Movies (War Tapes, Iraq For Sale, Meeting Resistance, The Ground Truth) and is now distributing the movie “War Child”, the life story of Emmanuel Jal, a Sudanese child soldier.

Dal holds two graduate degrees from Harvard, an MBA and an MPA, his BA at Providence College, during which time Dal spent his Junior Year at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland. He attended the Cathedral Preparatory Seminary and Bishop Loughlin High Schools in Brooklyn, NY.
