Additional Comments
I have one brother,
Dale,
a year older than myself. He is a neurologist with a home
in Pebble Beach near
Monterey
in Central California. His wife
Dana,
appears with him in the clickable photograph on the slopes of
Kilimanjaro.
Here is the hyperlink to a
family photograph album on my personal web pages.
My two parents live in the community of Encino in the San Fernando Valley
just north of Los Angeles. My father is a physician at Kaiser Permanentee
with subspecialties in Nuclear Medicine, Hematology and Oncology. My
mother has a Masters degree in the humanities and has taught high school
English. She is a certified flight instructor (CFII), with multiengine,
commercial, floatplane and balloon ratings.
Until quite recently she was the owner and operator of a flight
school at Van Nuys Airport. My parents are
observant Jews
and this background has had a profound influence on my personality and
general outlook.
