Richard is a celebrated writer and an accomplished poet.  His works are applauded for the poignant way he reexamines religious, political, and social norms with the zany style of a child running barefoot after a rainstorm.  With a love for books that began at an early age, Richard spent many years in offset printing and bookbinding, producing elegant coffee table books and limited editions for such clients as Disney, the Ford Motor Company, and for artists including Tom Lovell and James Bama.  His published works have been produced by Saint Jayne’s Theatre Company.

Raised in the wine country of northern California, Richard currently resides in his beloved Rocky Mountains where he enjoys his hobby of mountaineering and spending time in the red rock desert solitude.
