Salvador Dali
I walked into the St. Regis Hotel in Manhattan and there was Salvador Dali. (In the 1960's) I was very young and cute and he was happy to be recognized and gave me his autograph which I still have. I have many Salvador Dali books of his art. When my friend Huntington Hartford opened up his news gallery on Columbus Circle, he included some Salvador Dalis too.

I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth. So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her. For more information about what we're building see About AncientFaces.

My father's side is full blood Sicilian and my mother's side is a combination of Welsh, Scottish, German and a few other European cultures. One of my more colorful (ahem black sheep) family members came over on the Mayflower. He was among the first to be hanged in the New World for a criminal offense he made while onboard the ship.
