I am a veteran of six years in the U.S. Air Force, 20+ years as a computer pogrammer-analyst, and over 40 years of untreated, undiagnosed bipolar disorder and ADD. In spite of the first two, because of the last two, I became homeless in 1995 after a long depression. At the same time, I was finally diagnosed and found treatment, and became actively involved in Seattle's homeless organizing community. I have had housing since February 1996; this is the longest I've ever lived in one place in my life! I remain active in the homeless community. I usually describe myself as Writer/Teacher/Activist; or, I describe my main interests as Reading, Writing, and Rabble-Rousing. Read More »
