The Achiever: The Story of Mayor Norman S. Edelcup and the City of Sunny Isles Beach chronicles the life and contributions of a small Florida beach town's longest-serving and most-impactful mayor. A former Chicago native who moved to Sunny Isles Beach in 1968, Norman S. Edelcup witnessed a slow decline for decades as tourists moved on to greener pastures. With a lifetime of knowledge and experience as a successful accountant, businessman, banker, and philanthropist, Norman became determined to turn his adopted hometown into a grand coastal city. One of Sunny Isles Beach's founding fathers, he served first as a city commissioner, and then as the city's second mayor, ushering in spectacular citywide transformations. A meticulously researched biography and historical record, The Achiever is an inspiring testament to the visionary power of genuine civic leadership.
