I am here for Friends

About Me

I was born on October 8th, 1954 in Clovis California. George Reeves and "The Adventures of Superman" were my first television memory back in 1958. I've been a fan ever since, and now have a website dedicated to his memory. I grew up in Fresno, and entered into the military serving from 1972-74. I attended two colleges from 1975-84, and graduated in June of 1984. I have 3 children from my first marriage, Sarah, Heather, and Daniel, who live in Boise Idaho, and all adults. I also have 6 grandchildren. I am now married to the lovely Leslie who is my webmistress for Glass House. The website has provided for me many great friendships. I've had the opportunity to meet many wonderful author's and writer's over the past several years, and now showcase them at Glass House Presents: Glass House Presents Leslie and I are priviledged to have Noel Neill (The Original Lois Lane) as our friend, and have been with her in various shows and events. We love her so much and feel honored when she introduces us to people as her friends. I have some cool photos to share with you and will add and mix on my stay here. Check them out!
