He spent two years in Italy in U.S. Army Air Force Intelligence during World War II; and the time he spent in Rome determined the course of his life.

His favorite things are books, music, opera, ballet, theater, poetry, French and Italian food, travel, and the paintings of van Gogh. His favorite city is Paris; his favorite country is Italy; and his favorite place in San Francisco is Bernal Heights, where he now lives. His nephew Russ calls him a Radical Atheist B*tt-F*ck*r.
