Growing up in the suburbs of Chicago and a fan of female pop vocalists, Miguel Ortuno made his way to the then-new Tower Records store in Bloomingdale, IL to purchase his very first CD, “The Bodyguard” soundtrack featuring his favorite female singer, Whitney Houston. It wasn’t long after that Miguel applied for a job, was hired, and worked at the Bloomingdale location.
Running the register, helping customers, and putting away product was a regular part of the job. But Miguel saw other opportunities at Tower. He became a Supervisor and helped out on some “A-Team” projects opening stores around the country. When the position of North Central Events Coordinator opened up, he applied and got the job where he worked for Robert Stapleton, Phil Myers, and Bill Duffy.
And despite his heavy Tower Records workload, Miguel also found the time to run a very popular area nightclub on weekends.
