 NBC YEARS.
During the late 70s I worked for NBC-TV in beautiful downtown Burbank. I started in the mailroom and worked my way up to Administrator of Central Records for NBC, KNBC and Disney on Parade. For a time, I also served as camera operator for WHEEL OF FORTUNE, CELEBRITY SWEEPSTAKES, MAC DAVIS, HOLLYWOOD SQUARES and other shows. It was a great time and I learned a lot about the industry. |

MAGAZINE PUBLISHER.
During the 80s I published tons of different magazines. The largest selling was MYSTERY magazine, which was available on newsstands worldwide. Most of the other publications were connected to rock radio stations nationwide. |
|
| The most interesting of the lot was THE ROC magazine, which I did for KROQ in Los Angeles. They were the trendsetters for alternative music. I have always enjoyed popular music and have always gravitated toward the fringe (I liked techno and alternative in the 80s). |
|
CHRISTIAN MAGAZINES.
I always thought that most Christian magazines were more about family and not really about spirituality or Jesus. So, I published my own magazines featuring radical Christianity that connected with both Jesus and the culture. They were very "Hollywood Jesus." |
