He worked for Capitol Records for many years, beginning in 1945, and being promoted in 1960 to Artist & Repertoire producer. Since 1945 he was assistant studio manager/engineer, tape editor, studio supervisor, and special assistant to A&R administration director Francis Scott. His boss was often David Cavanaugh.
