Biographical Information

Born near central Los Angeles in 1946, I was raised in North San Gabriel and attended high school in Riverside, both in California. I received the Bachelor of Arts in Geography degree from the University of California at Davis in 1968 and the Master of City Planning degree from the University of California at Berkeley in 1970, studying under Professors Andre Rogers and T.J. Kent, Jr.. Following ten years as a practicing transit planner in Edmonton, Ottawa, Berkeley, San Diego, and Sacramento, I enrolled in the College of Social Science at the University of California at Irvine in 1981, where I obtained a Ph.D. in Social Science in 1987 under the supervision of Professors James J. Flink and Gordon J. Fielding. Following a year long post-doc at the Hagley Museum and Library as an Andrew W. Mellon/National Endowment for the Humanities Research Fellow, I joined the faculty at Florida State University in August 1988.
