is a third generation author and musician.

Along with the music, he has also developed full-time careers in other media.

After three long decades in a constant state of flux, The Rev. has settled down, in his current home of Cocoa Beach, Florida, to a comfortable weekly routine that allows him time to pursue his interests:

In his spare time, The Rev. enjoys thrift shopping, Film Noir, and Bungee jumping.
