Herbert H. "Herb" Bornack

Windermere, FL, age 80, was born on January 20, 1932 in New York City, where he spent most of his young life. He is the son of Hans and Margaret Bornack. Herb began his professional career with AT&T in 1951. He was called to duty by the U.S. Army in 1951 and served until 1953. After his service, he returned to AT&T and eventually transferred to Orlando, Florida, where he continued a successful career in telecommunications until he retired in 1982.

A very ambitious man, Herb opened Orlando Business Telephone Systems (OBTS), a company specializing in servicing and installation of a variety of telecommunication equipment. For Herb, no task was too difficult or to be considered impossible, which led to him opening Orlando Telephone Company (OTC) in 1998. Through OTC, Herb successfully installed fiber across Central Florida and the greater Orlando area.
