Thank everyone for welcoming me into your group! I had Paul Schmehl connect with me, and asked me to post on this site about my Cameo. Some want to know a little more about who I am.
I have been in the stage, corporate, Broadway Shows, and convention industry since 1982. I have met most of the entertainers that I have worked for. Many memories, some good, some bad. I have several autographed photos, tons of guitar picks and drum sticks. I have saved all of my backstage passes since 1984. I have 522 passes that I put into special large photo albums, then labeled them all with the concert info.
I just retired from the Natural History Museum of Utah. I worked there for 12 years installing and deinstalling their Special Exhibits. I only worked there twice a year, but for 2 weeks to 2 months at a time. My last exhibit was The Bug World (Lab), from New Zealand.
Many years ago I built a 50’s bar in my basement. It is a 9’x6’ bar, with the chrome, mushroom based 50’s bar stools. I have a 50’s soda jerk, double tap on it. I have several old jukeboxes, soda machines, and a Hires/Coca Cola Root beer Barrel. About 15 years ago, we had an original 50’s Rockabilly star from East Texas, do a 2 day video shoot about his life. His name was Lew Williams. He passed away about 5 years ago.
I am also a professional photographer, and have received several awards worldwide, for both color and B&W. Shooting landscapes, wildlife, architecture,corporate shows, and concerts. I have been married for 51 years, with 2 sons. I will reply with a separate post about my Cameo.
