He graduated from Lees College, Jackson, Ky.; Centre College, Danville; EKU, Richmond, and the University of Kentucky with a doctorate in Education.
He taught in Breathitt County, held several administrative positions in public education and finished his career as superintendent of schools in Wolfe and Pendleton Counties in Kentucky. Never a “yes” man, he was called an “obstructionist” by a legislator during the enactment of the Kentucky Education Reform Act.
He has written extensively since his retirement in 1996, primarily as a columnist in two weekly newspapers in Kentucky.
He is married for 49 years to the former Janice Fern Taylor of Lexington, Ky. They have two married sons, Mark and Kevin, and five grandchildren.ver menos
