He has published five books, and his commissioned work is found in numerous homes and corporations. His unconscious has been pervasive. Nurtured by the outdoors in central Utah, it grew until his life reflected his true nature. Cursed and blessed with Aspergers Syndrome, he thrived on Army structure and listened to his unconscious as it guided him through the Army, the creation of three regional history museums and, exploration of Mormonism, religious disciplines, Jungian psychology, mythology, and world history on his quest for spiritual and personal identity and growth. He lives with his third wife, Beverly in Green Valley, Arizona. He is the father of eight children and has 22 grandchildren. Those interested in personal and artistic growth, the unconscious and psychology, as well as fascinating archetypal journey will enjoy Journey out of Darkness.
