Abstract: Abstract I was born in the middle of the economic Great Depression on May 7, 1935, in the small town of Manchester in the slightly rolling hills of northeastern Iowa. My first vivid memory is that of being outside pulling my wagon along the sidewalk on a cold, bright, sunny winter day. I was 3, alone, and very happy. My mind was clear, and I was struck by the beauty of the world.
