Born in Chicago at Ravenswood hospital March 4th, 1949. Moved to Winfield, Illinois, suburb of Chicago when I was three. Great place to be a kid; oak forests, farms, all gone now. Valedictorian Elgin Academy 1967. Graduated from Carleton College in 1971, where I took LSD, did a lot of theatre, started writing poetry, and connected with Buddhism. A year at Broom Street Theatre in Madison, Wisconsin, then moved to the East Coast where I met my Buddhist teacher, Chogyam Trungpa, Rinpoche. Studied, practiced and taught in his organization for thirty years. Learned plumbing and helped build his meditation centers. Continued writing and was in three plays in Colorado around 2000. Moved to Tepoztlan, Mexico circa 2005. Started writing more. Been here ever since. One daughter, Sarah, who lives with her husband, Rick, in Vermont. |
