Acquired first pedigreed cat in 1971, a Russian Blue neuter, and added a breeding quality Russian Blue female a year later. Registered my cattery name, TSAR BLU, in 1973. I have bred and/or shown Russian Blues to CFA National Awards many times.
Acquired first Persian (a blue-cream) in 1977 and showed her to 18th Best Cat Nationally in 1979. Bred Persians in solid-, parti-, and bi-colour divisions and Exotics in solid and parti-colour. Acquired a Birman female from Australia in 2001 and have produced a CFA Grand Champion and Regional Winner.
Entered the CFA judging program in 1985 as a shorthair specialty judge; advanced to all breed judge in 1989. Have judged in every region of CFA (including Japan) plus the International Division. Have guest judged for other associations in Australia and New Zealand.
Have been active in numerous cat clubs since 1973 and have held every major office and show committee position. Was a founding member of the San Francisco Revelers cat club which held one of the premier shows in CFA in the 1990s; have been Treasurer of that club for many years. Was treasurer of CFA’s International shows for several years and served as Treasurer of CFA from 1996 to 2000.
In 'noncat' life, I’m a Certified Public Accountant. After six years with a public accounting firm as an auditor, I spent 19 years in senior financial management positions with the major utility company in Northern California. As a result of an attractive downsizing package offered in 1993, my current occupation is occasional consulting and doing special financial projects for large companies in the San Francisco area plus devoting much more time to CFA work and general cat fancy activities. I’m also an avid needlepointer and have entered a few competitions with my work as well as covering my walls and furniture with my works.
