Abstract
I was born during World War II as the first of four children of an artist mother and an engineer father. My parents had come of age during the depression, which shaped their lives and my early years. My father worked for the Aluminum Company of America, and my parents moved from New Jersey to Ohio during the war at least in part because the aircraft industry was relocated to the midwest.
