Born in Brooklyn New York, Kings County Hospital. On September 24, 1953.

Lived most of my life on Long Island, and NYC. Graduated in 1972 East Islip High School, Long Island, N.Y..

I attended Suffolk County Community College, Business  Classes, short nine credits.. For a degree in Business Management.

I've, been self employed most of my adult life, starting in 1976, at the age of 21, I opened a Record Store in Rocky Point, L.I. N.Y. and sold it in 1979. I became a Group Home Parent, for Little Flower Children Service’s in Wading River, L.I., working there, over two years. Leaving to work for Laker Airways, until 1982, when the other airlines monopolized, and put us out of Business. 

I started working as a Corporate Flight Attendant, for Executive Air Fleet, based at Teterboro Airport, which services most Corporate Aircraft's, such as Citibank Jets, J.C. Penny's, Banker Trust, and hundreds more.

I traveled the World, with then Chairman Mr. John Reed, of Citibank, Ralph Lauren, on his jet, and many others, for about two years.

After Jean Rich, convinced me to move to Los Angeles, to pursue Acting and Comedy, I move there in 1986, and got my first speaking role on the TV show “Knots Landing”, playing a police officer.  From  there I’ve acted in too many shows to name, and also I've, served on the Board of Screen Actor’s Guild, with then President Mr. Ronald Reagan, and Mrs. Patty Duke.
