About On Being Mike:
The journey of a Midwestern boy from the 1950s. His discoveries about life, love, and friendships during the turbulent times of the Vietnam war and a changing world.
From a mosquito infested airfield in Southeast Asia, to sleeping on a park bench in Manhattan, to sleeping at night on a bench in the Arab quarter at the port of Marseilles, waiting for the ferry to Corsica. At one point, with the band Dandy, playing at a political rally for French President, Jacques Chirac, to entertaining at a private party at the apartment of Christina Onassis in Paris. Being accosted by the Guardia Civil with automatic weapons on the beach in Northern Morocco. These were some of the events that were part of his life.
The meeting in Germany of his future life long companion, Christine, whom together with unyielding persistence, would build a life of accomplishments, despite the ups and downs they faced in the US and France.
