Was born in a small village south of Sparta, Greece in 1942 during the middle of the Second World War and when the country was under German and Italian occupation. He lived there all of his childhood except during one year where he attended the first year of gymnasium in Athens. In May of 1956 he and his younger brother crossed the Atlantic on a ship to join his father and three other brothers in the USA as immigrants. He continued his education and got his undergraduate degree in physics, his Masters in high energy physics and PhD in nuclear science and engineering; all within eight years. He worked in the private industry where he climb the administrative ladder within the companies for which he worked. Despite the fact that he chose physical science for the basis of his career, philosophy was an area that always attracted him and spent time reading related literary works. Among those literary works were those of Plato which apparently molded his way of thinking. He is presently retired and spends most of his time on the hobby of his life which is reading and writing. He has published an inspirational fable entitled The Sparrow, the Frog, and the Spider. Also, geological, volcanic and geographic characteristics, as documented by Plato, as well as discovered archaeological artifacts served as the bases for his book entitled Atlantis an Aegean Island, a Myth Not.view less
