Born in Norfolk, Virginia on December 1994, the seventy-five-year-old has been married twice. His first marriage was to Rita Skyes who bore him his two amazing children and then to Daphne Maxwell.

Although his first marriage of fourteen years ended shortly in 1980, he made up for it by marrying star actress and former Homecoming Queen of Northwestern University, Daphne.
