Lock was born and raised in the Detroit, Michigan, area and graduated from Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan, in 1974 with a degree in English and education. He worked mostly in sales and retail management until he was thirty-eight years old and then moved to Florida to achieve his long-held goal of becoming a classroom teacher. Teaching jobs were scarce in Michigan in 1989, and he knew his chances of getting hired were better in Florida. He was offered a job teaching elementary developmentally delayed students. He took the job, became certified in special education, and he said he has never had any regrets. Lock has three children, Andrew, Vicki, and Mary; and two grandchildren, Cadence and Emma; and is engaged to another teacher, Anna Radosti.view less
