A 'driven' man, he designed and built 4 homes for himself, though he lived in his studio a number of times, where he worked until exhausted, fell onto a cot, rose and continued working, 24/7. He has been champion in boxing, wrestling, and judo. He played piano in bars and played tennis for money, as he worked his way through college. He has lived on the Ocean in Cambria, CA, and on top of a mountain in Atascadero, CA., for years.
