He served in the U.S. Army including a tour in Viet Nam.Most of his professional life was spent in the Department of Psychology at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh and in consulting. His applied work as a clinical psychologist including just plain listening and trying to “make sense of” serves him well as a collector. He is now joyfully retired.His interests in collecting and writing have led to numerous columns that continue to be published in Maine Antique Digest. He also pens a monthly column for the local newspaper, the Oshkosh Northwestern, about local, state and national matters – involving the interactions of three people in a bar (about as Wisconsin as one can get).Married almost 50 years, his wife Sandy joins him in collecting. They have lived in Oshkosh, Wisconsin for a long time and have two sons and three cats. Neither son is as consumed with collecting as their dad is. Nor are the cats.view less
