I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California.  In my early years we lived in Watts, on 113th street, and I attended Mona Park elementary school.  We moved to Compton, California when I was in the second grade.  I graduated from Enterprise Junior High School and Centennial Senior High School.                                

After graduating from high school, I realized that I was just barely qualified to work in a car wash.  I joined the Air Force in 1964 and served for four years as a data processing technician.   

After being honorably discharged in 1968, I worked as a computer operator and programmer while going to school full time on the G. I. Bill.  I graduated from La Verne University with a degree in Sociology in 1974 and thought I was ready to change the world.  Unfortunately, the world had other ideas!  I went back into data processing.

I guess these books are an attempt to make a statement before my time, in this world, is up.
