Opis

I Once was an Architect is a book of memories. They are memories of good times and bad, of successes and crushing failures. Parties and failure at Cornell opposed to intense study, hard work and marriage while at Syracuse University set the pattern for the diversity of an unusual life. The story journeys through a life spent after graduation first as a businessman, interior designer, entrepreneur and restaurateur for a period of twenty years. Then at the urging of a friend taking the architectural licensing exam twenty years after graduation, passing and commencing ten years as an architect in which his firm grew from a one-man firm to a 100-employee operation with offices in Miami and on three islands in the Caribbean. This was followed by ten years spent as a Caribbean hotel owner/operator and finally in retirement as a writer with six books published prior to I Once was an Architect. It is the story of the lasting influence imbued in him by one dedicated professor of history whose teachings played a key role in each segment of a fascinatingly diverse life illustrated with well over 200 drawings and pictures..
