I spent two years at the Atlanta School of Art in Georgia after graduating from the University of Kentucky with a degree in journalism. Before leaving Kentucky for art school, I spent a year promoting the idea for an educational television network in Kentucky.

Governor Edward (Ned) Breathitt found money to begin construction of the network and I continued to help and advise while in art school. After leaving Atlanta, I came back to Kentucky to become the first art director for the new TV network that was to go on the air just a few months later in September, 1968.
