A 1932 runaway teenager finished high school while living alone on $3 a week. He entered law school at 17. On his own was tough enough, but death took his father and he became responsible for his widowed mother, two sisters and a dying brother. Struggling as family head, he worked his way through law school to become a 21-year old attorney. He tells of the many who helped along the way, a special one being Texas State Senator Harry Hertzberg who left his native San Antonio the unique, valuable Hertzberg Circus Museum.
