An Oklahoma Original: The Life and Career of Paul E. Pete Simmons

Paul E. Pete Simmons was first dubbed ‘An Oklahoma Original’ by a television reporter from Tulsa, Oklahoma. He was definitely a one-of-a-kind individual. Pete was as versatile in his personality as he was in his God-given gifts and talents. Some called him eccentric when riding his CB750A Hondamatic motorcyle to court when serving as Associate District Judge, while others called him friend and close confidant, and believed he was one of the best defense attorneys in northeastern Oklahoma. Those who knew him well understood him and loved him. This book depicts his good times and bad; his turmoil and triumphs. But it mostly shows a tender-hearted unique man underneath the tough image.
