STICK WITH THE WINNERS! –
Feb. 4, 2025 – I’m what some might call a modern-day renaissance man. During my multi-decade career, I’ve headed a successful entertainment PR firm, written, and produced two major motion pictures, owned a contemporary music record label, and created two podcast series. For a time, I was in the restaurant business, as one of the founders of LA’s Rainbow Bar & Grill. I’ve been clean and sober for over 42 years. I’ve also written three published books about addiction.
Q. If you are in recovery, what was your drug(s) of choice and when is your sobriety date?
A. Mostly cocaine but dabbled in everything from psychedelics to heroin.
Q. What do you like most about 12-step meetings?
A. The connection to a community with a singleness of purpose. To stay sober and help others.
Q. Do you think addiction is an illness, disease, a choice, or a wicked twist of fate?
A. An illness but possibly a wicked twist of fate, as well!
