DREAMS FROM MOMENTS LIKE THESE

About the Book

This book comes from that compulsion to know. The painting and poetry are a means to an end, that end the understanding of the meaning of existence. In both painting and poetry one is compelled to seek the essence of a thing, to understand its totality. These are the moments I take with me, and these are the moments I leave behind.

About the Author

Born in Schenectady, New York he was moved back to the dessert valley of his grandparents shortly after birth, where he was raised in an isolated desert town dedicated to the production of plutonium for the toys of war built in part on his family’s condemned farms. It was a good place to be raised, a middle class dream of a totally new city, with new schools and parks and government housing built for mangers, engineers, and workers all with housing styles and neighborhoods. A middle class dream built isolated in the desert to produce the most dangerous material ever conceived by man. Now he is the lead civil structural inspector of a 12 billion dollar complex being built to isolate the radioactive chemical waste produced by that production.
