Still later, I worked in public relations writing speeches, articles, brochures, etc., etc.In my late thirties, I became interested in manufacturing jewelry. What began as an avocation swiftly turned into a passionate vocation as I studied gemology and various jewelry manufacturing techniques and became aware of the wonderful work being done by studio jewelers today. I opened a gallery in Houston, Texas. It grew and I moved it to a larger space where I showed work by a number of important contemporary art jewelers.Although I still maintain a small client base, today I'm writing, playing with video, doing a little traveling and following my son, a professional chef, around the kitchen with a towel and a sponge.view less
