74 Years Old Today: My Autobiography!

12.14.2024 by Fred Berman //

Born:  Mt. Sinai Hospital, Chicago, IL December 14, 1950

Lived In:   Chicago, Los Angeles, Culver City CA, Torrance, El Cajon CA, Simi Valley CA, Northridge CA,  San Diego, Lisle IL, Chicago IL, Virginia Beach, Pasig City Philippines, Oceanside CA, Lewes England (Only 30 days but it counts!), Wilsonville OR.

Education: Darwin Elementary Chicago, Burnside Ave. Los Angeles, Farragut Elementary Culver City, Culver City Jr. High, Culver City High School, Hamilton High Los Angeles, Santa Monica College, California State University Northridge, Graduate Work UCLA (OK a bit of a stretch. I took one evening accounting class and made it through 4 or 5 sessions.  But the humiliation taught me a life lesson so it also counts!)

Love: August 1974 invited to friends house after work to be the fourth player for a game of Hearts with them and their neighbor, Linda. (Yes, it was a set-up).  October 1974, invited to Linda’s apartment to watch “The Poseidon Adventure” on her color TV.  Never looked back.  Married June 13, 1976. Everything that means anything in my life came from her including Robert, Greg and Alan.

Future: Whatev! But three things for sure: Linda, Linda & Linda!

And of course, YOU, Our friends and family around the world! We send our love and sincere thanks for your lovely greetings.
