TOM PISAPIA

After earning his BA in psychology in 1973 from Northern Illinois University, Tom Pisapia spent more than forty years in the mortgage industry, taking mortgages literally from Main Street to Wall Street and back again. Along the way he made stops at Fannie Mae, The Federal Home Loan Bank, the FDIC/RTC, numerous savings and loans, mortgage companies, and even a few banks. Not surprisingly, Pisapia migrated toward the credit union industry, which gave him that same feeling of purpose and greater good that he remembered from his savings and loan days. He is the author of Pottersville: Where Is the Bailey Building and Loan?
