He also became a writer, releasing Dear Salmoneus: The World’s First Guide to Love and Money in 1999 and The Haircut Who Would Be King, a political satire in 2019 that included characters like Vladimir Poutine and Donald Rump.
In an interview, Trebor stated, “Salmoneus just kind of schmoozed people over and was always trying to scheme and get somebody to do something by showing them the glitter without talking about the substance of the rather shoddy product he was selling.” “And in that regard, I believe there is some relevance to the man in the White House.”
He went on: “I think Trump is a combination of a salesman and a psychopath in many ways.” And I considered it when I was writing since I had portrayed that as an actor, presumably with some degree of success.

While attending a business course at the New School in New York, Trebor and his wife got to know one another. Shortly after his leukemia diagnosis, they married in 2012 after relocating to Los Angeles in 1990.
