ABSTRACT
I have had a remarkably diverse and interesting se-quence of careers. I was born in 1919 in Far Rockaway, New York, a place that I intensely loved and still mournfully miss! My two main childhood interests were science and music. My closest friend was my neighbor, Bernard Horowitz , who went on to become an inventor with several hundred patents to his credit. I was also a grade school classmate of the famous Nobel Laureate Richard Feynman .
