Erick's Story
Life
I've lived in the Los Angeles area since 1992, West Hollywood since 1999. I return to Phoenix to visit family and best friend, Jeremy Morse. I've been a graphic specialist for several years. My dream of being a superstar is gone, but I have found other avenues to nurture my creative endeavors.
Several years ago, after a series of emotional and psychological growth spurts, I began the journey of self-acceptance as a gay man. I realized the necessity of accepting this part of myself in order to live a sane and healthy life.
Another milestone in recent years has been finding my biological father. After my mother's passing in 2004, a few skeletons fell out of the closet and it came to light that my father was not who I had been told. My real dad had never being told (sounds like a Jerry Springer [ugh!] episode, doe...Expand for more
sn't it?). From fall 2004 to his passing in November 2007, he became not only my dad, but one of my closest friends. I miss him but I am grateful I agreed to take on his name, Woodby, legally changing it in November 2007.
My senior year at Glendale was my best high school year. I'm glad to have completed my high school years with the Cardinals.
College
I was at Glendale Community for a semester, transferring to Northern Arizona University as a journalism major from Spring 1989 to Spring 1990. I transferred again (I know!) to the University of Arizona as an acting/directing major. I was there from Fall 1990 to Spring 1992, dropping out like the true artist I wanted to be and moved to Los Angeles. Life after college was my own for the first time. Which means I made a few interesting yet valuable mistakes along the way.
