|  Born in Bari, Italy, he came to the U.S. at age two in 1935. He was raised in New York's Lower East Side and joined the Air Force at age 17 during the Korean War. He attended the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles majoring in illustration and got a job in Pittsburgh as an industrial illustrator and then in California for Lockheed and Disney Productions. Inspired by a Fechin exhibit, he quit his illustration job and moved to Taos, New Mexico in 1969. A gallery managed by Tommy Lewis carried his work, and he formed the Taos Six with Walt Gonske, Ron Barsano, Julian Roble and Rod Goebel. He married artist Leslie Crespin. |
