Occupation: | Motion Picture Producer |

Children: | Never. But I like to think of some of my friends as my children. In 1981 I took in a homeless Puerto More…Rican. Within two years he became internationally famous. He has met all of the living presidents and introduced me to many major stars -- including Madonna. We've been friends for over 30 years. I met him when he was half my age. I think he's older than me now! My second "kid" was 17 when we met. Ryan is 22 now and we'll be celebrating the opening of his first film that he not only produced but wrote and directed as well! The movie is "The Projectionist" and is about a Vietnam Vet who suffers from post-traumatic stress syndrome. His name is Ryan M. Kennedy. You heard it here first. |

Military Service: | Air Force -- Commissioned Officer ![]() |

Graduated Hofstra University -- 1967. Worked three summers, during college, in the Merchant Marine traveling twice to Europe and once to Asia. After college I served as an air force officer (1967-1971) stationed in Florida, Alaska and West Germany. Took my discharge in Europe and traveled for a couple of months before returning to New York and moving into an apartment in Manhattan. During the seventies I worked primarily in advertising sales for the New York Bluebooks, except for two years in Asia selling for Chrysler and Harley-Davidson Military sales. In 1980 I was turned on to rebound exercise -- something that changed my life and introduced me to holistic health. By the time the incurable "AIDS virus" was announced, I honestly believed I had found the cure. Every AIDS victim I had turned on to rebounding recovered or remained healthy with no drugs at all! Prior to discussing this subject, all of my letters to newspapers (mostly about bicycling and landlord/tenant issues - had been published.) I even did an editorial reply on NBC TV News! You can imagine my surprise when none of my letters on the subject of AIDS were published. So I tried writing to the White House and was warned to stop or I'd be put on a list! I believe I was not only blacklisted, but also attacked with high-tech weaponry! This was probably more retaliation for my producing over a decade of cable TV programs on this and other health issues.
Still finding myself. Since becoming a retiree, I've also become a movie producer
