Former New Yorker now re-situated in Los Angeles, graduated NYU and later added post-grad studies at UCLA. Seeking deep connection with dynamic, thought-provoking, free-spirited gentleman, well-educated, well-traveled, and over 40.

Integrity and Honor are highly valued attributes in my partner, as is a ready sense of humor. I bring no "baggage", you will be similarly unencumbered. Allergic to tobacco smoke, dishonesty, bigotry and intolerance.

Pick one or three: a stroll through the Farmer's Market at 3rd and Fairfax, tea at the Bodhi Tree, a concert in the park at Marina del Rey, a vintage film with wine and cheese on a blanket at Hollywood Forever Cemetery (Cinespia), a concert and a box supper at the Hollywood Bowl, lunch at the Coronado and a day trip to Catalina Island. Your ideas?

Guys! It's getting comical! Please, PLEASE have some imagination and list something other than walking on the beach as an interest? What makes you unique? It's not so hard to do!
