The Ugly One in the Middle is about Stan Campbell’s wicked, and often funny story of the search for two people, his birth mom, and the angelic, sensual woman of his dreams. Kind of romantic, right? But, wait…there is humor, mystery and intrigue. Just before Stan’s sixteenth birthday, his Aunt Patsy accidentally let it slip that his mom and pop did not conceive him. No surprise. Parents having sex? Quel horror! His adoptive mom knew something dark, but she wasn’t talking. It didn’t matter much…then. Stan’s top priorities of the day were drowning his bashfulness in a wine and rubbing alcohol mix. That didn’t work. He threw up and fell down a lot. After leaving his rural Cape Breton home, Stan found periods of sobriety, interrupted by evenings of alcoholic blackouts, and the end of virginity, culminating in a terror-filled evening of lust. Stan’s story is roller-coaster of multiple marriages, followed by multiple divorces, caused mostly by multiple affairs while pursuing a career as a big city radio DJ.

After five years in the military Alex Stan Campbell was employed as Top Secret cleared electronic technician in the arctic. Following the frigid operation, he was hired for an overnight radio DJ position. Quickly, he moved on to host radio shows throughout Canada, and eventually, on network TV. In 1982, he launched a record company and produced artists in Nashville, including then-unknown, Eilleen (Shania) Twain. The record business was a critical success and a financial disaster. Stan returned to radio in Nashville and on to Los Angeles. After five years in Hollywood, Stan moved to the peace and quiet of a small town in Northern Michigan. Besides writing, Stan is currently a voice actor.
