I graduated from the University of Minnesota as an Architect in 1965. I was married in 1966 to Suzanne and we remain married today. I have done post-graduate work at MIT, Cornell, U of Illinois, IIT, NYU, and Harvard. I have obtained a MBA from NYU in Finance. As adjunct Faculty I have Professorships at Yale Graduate School of Architecture and Pratt School of Architecture and have lectured at several East Coast University's. I have authored a few technical books. Basically, my life has been spent in architecture (39 years in practice). For those of you that have an interest, there is a web site, rhbpc.com, where much of my more recent work can be seen. Much of it is in secured sites on the web and so you will have no access to those areas.

Suzanne and I have three children, all married, and three grandchildren.

My youngest, Spencer is completing his last year of Med School and will be a Surgeon. He attended MIT where he graduated with Honors (Biology and Chemistry), He also attended Columbia University at the age of 15 on a science scholarship, Harvard at 17, and then to MIT. He was laboratory assistant to Dr. Philip Sharp, winner of the Nobel Prize in 1993. He was also departmental tutor in Chemistry at MIT when he was 19. He spent three years doing research at Columbia Med School, and The Biochemistry and Biophysics Labs at the University of California San Francisco before attending Tufts Med School in Boston.

Mark, my oldest boy, is an architect and graduated from RISDI and runs our office in Burlington Vermont. He is married and one son.

Heather, my oldest is married, MBA from IONA. She has two children, owns her own company and also runs my architectural practice.

My quiet time is spent blue water sailing on the Atlantic and fly-fishing, both of which I do extensively.

Most memorable moments-three days in a Hurricane (somewhere between New York and England) with my son when he was thirteen, being bombed in Beirut, Architectural design of a few favorite projects: the King Abdul Aziz University in Mecca, the Jetport in Jeddah, Hebrew University in Jerusalem, the Muppet Studios and corporate offices with Jim Henson, and the new Seminary for the Catholic Church in North America (in-progress), my nephews tree house, and the birth of my children and grandchildren. Walking across the desert to the Great Pyramids on a moonlight night, watching the sun rise from the Acropolis, a fine bottle of wine on the Spanish Steps in Rome at 2:00 in the morning, and a 35 lb. salmon taking my fly on a remote river in Gaspe.
