Bio

I am interested in my ancestors, knew very few of them. This site helps a lot. Thank you all. I am researching books I am writing about my uncle-a B-24 bombardier in WW II, my mom, my artist-musician brother Rob, and my ship. I wrote a book about my dad and his publications.

I was in the Gulf of Tonkin Incident on the USS Ticonderoga in Vietnam, and spent 4.5 years in the Navy. Got a BA at UCLA and MS in Environmental Engineering at USC.

I was an engineer then deputy director of engineering for the US Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center. Won a White House award for developing clean rockets. At 50 took up dance for exercise and won 3 tv dance shows (one paid $100K, one with my son and one with J Lo) and in 2 Michael Jackson videos. Retired, have 2 grown children, currently traveling and writing.
