Interested in photography I since purchased an Exacta in high school. Decided to be an astrophysicist, then when I couldn't cut the mustard dropped out, got married (1972) and went to law school. I represent photographers and others with copyright and trademark beefs, and I can view the astrophysics department at Caltech out my window. Now I have made enough $ to afford my first passion. Some images are at: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/rjrose/gallery.htm Also got hooked into being President of a little synagogue with no permanent rabbi, so I am chief, cook & bottle washer.
