Bissell also demonstrated early art talents and heartily supported his future wife's interests in painting. The couple married in Susan's family home; Fred voluntarily left Harvard due to their future plans and never completed his dissertation. After settling in Dubuque, Fred began working at CARADCO, and over his thirty year career, served as a company vice president and sales manager. In turn, his father's family business, the [[H. B. GLOVER COMPANY]], was the inspiration for a book titled 7 1/2 Cents by his brother, [[BISSELL, Richard |Richard BISSELL]]. The book later became the inspiration for the Broadway musical, The Pajama Game.</div></td></tr>
