Introduction About Me. Nosey, huh? OK, here it is. I was born and raised in Milwaukee. Oprah went to my high school. So did Kato Kaeilin. I grew up listening to and singing a lot of Yiddish, Russian and religious music. I've lived in the US, Israel, and Italy. I love partial differential equations and minor seventh chords equally. I am loved and cherish those that love me. In another life, I was a professor at a school well known for its basketball team. Now I'm working on a book, writing songs, and doing some water related science. Email at fortyquestions at gmail dot com.
