After Birmingham, I went to San Francisco State, then taught junior high in Pacifica for 4 years. Got my Ph.D. in Education at Northwestern Univ. in 1974 and stayed on for two more years as Ass't Prof. Went to Univ of Texas at San Antonio for only 1 year before going overseas: to Thailand (1977-81), Peru (1981-84), with a three year stop in Raleigh, N.C. as Principal of a Junior High before Argentina (1987-92).

Still love to play the guitar and sing along. Devoted to my wife, Mary, who quit teaching junior high English to work for her church headquarters developing disciple formation materials. Yes, a Jewish guy with a wife who is an "Executive Minister." Mary now retired.
FLASH! Just had quadruple heart bypass surgery in Jan 2014 and am home recovering. Very blessed to have another opportunity as a husband, father, and grandfather.
