Born August 8, 1932 in Nuremberg, Germany. Died 1997. He arrives only reluctantly, preferring -- ultimately -- to stay home and make "incidental charms". He is a blindworm, laying eggs in shallow pools of water. He receives several automating whirligigs.
Another youthful immigrant to the United States, he returned to his native Germany in 1960 to produce sober and orderly treatises on various arcane branches of AA lore. His Life Alphabetically (1967) is still considered to be one of the masterpieces of Associationalist poetry and his painting are acknowledged to be "striking." His only eccentricity was that he preferred to work in his study with his penis hanging out of his pants, even in the presence of guests and visitors. No one ever questioned him about it.
