Michael Francis
After the Catalina years and a BA from the U of A, I spent the
next 30 plus years in a government service career in Southern
California with the Cities of Los Angeles, Long Beach and finally
the County of Los Angeles managing redevelopment programs.  
I married Joan Whitlock in 1965 and we successfully raised
three children, Linda, Michael Sean and Devan.  We have two
grandchildren.  I retired in 1997 and Joan closed her Private
Investigation firm, then we traveled in an RV full time for four
years primarily in Western North America until putting down
roots again in a little valley in the Southern Sierra Nevada's.  
We have also traveled to Costa Rico, Portugal, Italy, Spain,
Croatia, France, Germany and Austria.  Some of this travel
provided research for the three novels that Joan has written
and published.  Our life continues to be very good.
