Mark Rogo is a frustrated author, deciding late in life that his bucket list needed attention. His various careers through life have led him in different directions, none of which quelled his desire to write. After graduating La Canada High School and the University of Pacific, Mark entered Southwestern School of Law, only to discover that Perry Mason was nowhere to be found. His next move was to join the family business, as a used machinery dealer, which became his career for over twenty years. Eventually, he bought Morton Machinery Company and transformed it from a stocking dealer to a multi-faceted company with divisions in leasing, new machinery sales, asset-based lending, and controlled liquidations. The United States economy had other ideas, and as the manufacturing base left the country, so did Mark’s desire to work harder and earn less. So he followed the path his wife had embarked on, and once again reinvented himself as a real estate agent, which is where you will find him today at Coldwell Banker in Beverly Hills. Mark’s passion for life centers on his trophy wife of 40 years, Lynn Mirisch Rogo, their two daughters Marcie and Lisa, a son-in law Anil, and two perfect granddaughters.
