After more than forty years focused on architectural design and real estate development projects, Marc has launched several new careers: writing books, performing stand-up comedy routines, and creating and starring in "Benjamin's Grandpa" videos. His future outlook is all about accomplishing the fun stuff he always dreamed of doing. "In my youth, I was a silly kid. Life's challenges and experiences influenced me to become a (mostly) serious-minded adult, and conformity was the only way to survive in the corporate world. With no one to answer to any longer, it's time for the silly me to come out . . . with maybe just a little seriousness now and then." Marc grew up in the East New York section of Brooklyn, New York in the 1950s and '60s. As a young boy, Marc developed an interest in watching the construction of buildings and he went on to attend a school of architecture. On the day of his sixteenth birthday, Marc started his working career as a clerk at the Big Apple Supermarket on Church Avenue, Brooklyn. He earned maybe $1.25 an hour and made extra money from a side business he cooked up, ferrying groceries home from the market for elderly customers. Now . . . he's a proud author, a stand-up comedian, and grandpa to three grandkids.view less
