1949 The Bronx: In the midst of a small apartment, crowding a large, noisy and argumentative family, I discover that magically, drawing made me invisible.

1949 to 1959 I keep drawing.

1959 to 1963 I attend The Cooper Union School of Art and Architecture and add painting to the magical operation, I also begin to seek some visibility. B.F.A.

1963 New York: painting show Peter Cooper Gallery

1963 to 1965 I attend Yale University and discover that printmaking works almost as well as drawing. M.F.A.

1967 to 1969 I begin teaching at the University of Texas, Austin. See color in the world. I discover that sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm with my students can be as good  as painting, drawing and printmaking.
Painting and drawing show at A Clean Well Lighted Place and the Terrace Gallery.

1969 to 1971 Los Angeles: In an extraordinary community of students and faculty I participated in the restructuring of the foundation curriculum of the Design department of the University of California, L. A. Painting show, Marina Gallery.

1971 to 1972 I teach at San Bernardino Valley College and am re-enforced in my love of Surrealism as I witness hundreds of ready-mix trucks dump their loads of cement into the San Andreas fault on that campus.

1972 to 2005 I order twenty-four easels, a slide projector and found the Art department at Crafton Hills College.
