The Unusual Stuff

A creative director who's not a prima dona. How odd.
At 6' 7", always chosen first in pick-up basketball games.
A gourmet chef who views the cheeseburger as the ultimate culinary challenge.
Ran away from home at age 16 and hitch hiked to California, which might be why he equates Jimmy Stewart's performance in Harvey to Steinbeck's Grapes Of Wrath for literary achievement.
Words for his tombstone: He wouldn't fit in one plot.
