An unsuccessful art student, he chose to become a career primary school teacher, moving that role to Queensland, Australia, in 1974. He retired there, having taught in schools with student populations ranging from just 4 to over 1,500, but no matter the number, his message was always the same. His students were always encouraged to think, told to be seen to care, and to espouse the value of education ahead of schooling.
Today he is living with his third and final wife in Manhattan, New York, where he enjoys discovering the minutiae of this wonderful city.view less
