For the last 20 years I have been a talent agent for film and Broadway composers. I own my own agency and have had the opportunity to represent some of my favorite composers. I have also been writing and producing. A documentary I made about my wacky life, FINDING KRAFTLAND has played at over 70 film festivals around the world where it has picked up a number of awards.

und the globe researching a book about roller coasters. We have been to over 20 countries and ridden over 425 coasters.
In my spare time I teach at USC and am involved in fundraising for Crohn's Disease, which my brother David died of several years ago.
I am still a major collector. Mainly collect old board games, advertising figures, food packages and pieces of Disneyland.
I have been divorced for many years and currently live with an amazing women, Liz and her son, Julius.
I return to Bakersfield every so often for some Basque food and Dewars peanut butter chews.
Hope all is going well for my fellow classmates.
