Abstract

I have always wanted to be a detective. As a young child in New York City, I was determined to uncover the secrets of the mummies at the Museum of Natural History. I grew up in the Parkchester section of the Bronx, New York with my parents and older sister, Judy. I was a happy and vivacious child (Fig. 1) filled with curiosity. My mother became an early childhood teacher when I was about five years old (typical of many in her cohort) and later was an assistant principal at Public School 105 in the Bronx. My father was a middle manager, eventually at Burlington Industries, where he was in charge of data processing, programmed an IBM 360, and supervised a bevy of key-punch operators.
