- Worked as a prison guard at Soledad State Prison (California, USA) in the 1970s. He retired in 1980 because of a stress disability.
- Started Rent-A-Gang, an organization that provided menacing-looking extras for biker gangs in films and television.
- [1987, Los Angeles Times interview, commenting on the biker gang look]: "The attitude you see in that look belongs in Vietnam, belongs in a prison yard or in front of a camera, no place in between. When I get through lookin' like that, I go home and change my daughter's diapers, just like everybody else."
- It's more fun to go out and get along with people, make a movie, get patted on the back, than it is to ask: 'Officer, did you have to hit me with that nightstick?'
