Rodgers Musical Instrument Company
John Green began installing pipe organs when he was still in school and fell in love with not only the technical process but in the reaction of the customers. He worked in a music store in Newport Beach, California before being hired by Rodgers Musical Instrument Company in 1976. He was with the company on two different occasions, and in between owned a music store with his wife in Nebraska. Each experience brought him a better understanding of the product line, the customer and their needs. Among his titles at Rodgers were Regional Sales Manager and Export Manager, which is the position he held until his retirement in 2010, after having enjoyed over 40 years in the music products industry.
