My twin brother Jim and I were born in Tokyo Japan on September 2, 1949 where my father was stationed in the U.S. Army Air force. He was the navigator in a C-54 for General Macarthur. We were living in the home of the Emperor’s uncle with my older brother Bob Jr. and my mother and father Mary and Bob.

While in college, I bought a copy of da Vinci’s notebooks, read them multiple times, and have continued to read and reread them during the intervening years until now. I learned from da Vinci, in general, to aim for excellence in many areas of life, and in particular, from studying his writings and paintings, how to use colors and create compositions.
