He received his liberal arts education, premed, and BA in chemistry and psychology from Hobart College in Geneva, New York. He worked for two years in the neurophysiological research laboratory at the former Hartford Retreat, now the Institute of Living, in Hartford, Connecticut.
The laboratory’s research was directed by Karl Pribram, MD, now department head of Neuropsychology at Stanford University. Dr. Pribram is recognized as the father of neurophysiology. During the author’s short time at the Hartford Retreat, he was exposed to the best minds in neurophysiology.
Since that time, he has spent thirty years in sales for several national biomedical companies. Recently, he has become involved in the environmental field and was business development manager for Technical Waste, Inc. in Placentia, California.
