AJ O'Neil: AJ ONeil is best known as owner of AJs Cafe in Ferndale, Michigan. When AJs closed its doors after 5 years, it left behind a legacy that included extraordinary accomplishments in grass-roots activism and community events.among them the Guinness world record(s) for longest concert(s) (288 &360 hrs). The "Assembly Line Concert(s)" brought global attention to the Detroit auto and manufacturing industry at a time when it was most needed, 2009-11 & the "little cafe that bailed out the American auto industry, one cup of coffee at a time" was singing the praises of Detroit's workers and products long before "Imported From Detroit" was cool. He's subject of a book "In Sunlight or in Shadow" by Karen Wilhelm,(foreword by Ernie Harwell) about a 50 hour non stop "Danny Boy" marathon, (AJs Cafe 2008) entered in Riply's Believe it or Not!(2010) He hopes to help return Highland Park its historic stature as a cool town and home of the great American manufacturing industry, restoring it with the dignity that is only found with providing jobs and investment. AJsCoffeeWorksCo will strive to be one example of that committment as both an employer and a catalyst of conversation.
