Immature and unable to deal with it at the time, a subject the family never discussed, he refused his father. Until he returned from Sicily in 1958, at which time he told his father that he didn’t know when, but he would do it for him and he did in fact write the story.

 Born and raised in New York City and spending his teenage years on Long Island he served in the Navy as an electrician and yeoman for four years.  He studied at the Professional Institute of Commercial Art at  Reisterstown, Baltimore specializing in commercial and graphic art, fashion illustration, advertising and animation.  He served as a graphics/animation instructor at the Institute and authored an Animation 101 manual for use by future PICA students.
