When I was young, I thought I would be a scientist,

a politician, or a businessman.  I turned out to be

an artist instead.

​

Born in St. Louis, I grew up in Arizona.  For seven years I lived in California, first as a student at Stanford, then as a salesman for IBM, and then as a graduate student in the business school at UCLA.  After a brief stint in finance at Intel back in Arizona, I started a PC clone company called Datafox. I sold it to a distributor in Philadelphia and started a consulting business.  I wrote newspaper editorials.  I did a little public speaking. I wrote tech manuals and computer code.  But through it all, it was the arts that held the strongest fascination, and they became my focus.

​

I've spent the rest of my years traveling and creating art in the three areas that interest me most: music, literature, and visual arts.
