In 1960 traveled to New York and worked for the American Zionist Organization at 515 Park Avenue
where we were picketed by Arabs wearing green beanies. The address was significant because at that
time we could lean out the window and watch the daily processions of the Khrushchev/Castro
delegations on route to the United Nations. Had a brief interlude as a professional folk singer - guitar
and all.
Strange things happen to me; they always do. Moved to King of Prussia, Pennsylvania where I lived
in a malevolent Haunted House for a year. Moved to Norristown, Pennsylvania wherein after
attending a Science-Fiction Convention, I innocently purchased a bronze pendant with a pentagram
on it. Unbeknownst to me, the pendant had words in Arabic and Hebrew for fear and madness etched
on the back of it. (My Rabbi told me.) For years until I figured it out, horrendous events occurred to
me and to my family whenever the pendant was worn or touched. We buried it in a vacant lot. Can
you even wonder that I write and perform stories and that horror stories are my forte?
