Born in Akron, Ohio on Brown Street, he grew up in the city, and developed a love of biology and fish early in life.

In addition to fishing, he had a passion for journalism, making bamboo casting and fly rods in his spare time, and working with taxidermy. As he became an employee of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company of Akron, Ohio, he honed skills in the rubber industry.
