Biography
Growing up as one of six children in suburban Chicago I found freedom and adventure on my bicycle and solitude while reading. The balance of action and introspection broken only by my dry sense of humor, carried me thru Catholic Grade School and Private Prep School. I worked my way through College, had a career, and with the help of my very supportive family and friends I manage to stay very active.
