James's Story
Life
After spending my college freshman
and sophomore years at Springfield
College, I went on to SIU,
Carbondale where I majored in
anthropology. I got married,
un-married, and somehow ended up
in Wyoming building custom log
homes. During this time I also
worked for Columbia and Universal
Pictures on several motion picture
productions (westerns, mostly)
involving stars like Clint Eastwood,
James Arness, Charlton Heston, and
Brian Keith. In a round-a-bout way I
ended up here in Iowa back in the
mid 80s doing design-build things
for clients like Robert Waller
("Bridges Of Madison County").
During this time I also did a lot of
photo work of my own, mainly sports
action s...Expand for more
tuff on the Winston Racing
Series and NASCAR circuits along
with college level sports events
(football and basketball). A few years
ago I got married, again, this time to
an Iowa gal, and we now live here in
a little town up by Waterloo/Cedar
Falls. We have two kids, a boy 13
and a girl who's 4 1/2 (this when
friends of ours are having
grandkids). Currently, I'm a "work at
home dad" with my own business
designing and developing web sites
and hosting them for a client base
ranging from small businesses and
professionals, including an
international association of
manufacturers, engineers, and
consultants in the amusement
industry ranging from carnival
operators to Disney.
