ANNAPOLIS, Md. - Marylandian -- DonnaInk Publications proudly announces the upcoming release of Born To Compete: A Man Without A War, a compelling and deeply personal narrative by Theresa Zaino, chronicling the extraordinary life of her husband, Danny Zaino. This title is more than biography—it's a testament to grit, grace, and the power of purpose. With cinematic storytelling and emotional depth, Theresa Zaino invites readers into the world of a man who turned trauma into triumph, building a legacy that spans military service, law enforcement, martial arts mastery, and media innovation.

About the Book - Born To Compete explores Danny Zaino's journey from the DMZ in Korea—where he served as a Military Police Officer during the assassination of South Korean President Park Chung-hee and the Gwangju Uprising—to the streets of Florida as a police officer, and ultimately to the spotlight as a martial arts champion and media personality. The book offers raw insight into PTSD, family strength, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.
