He was born and raised in south India where he received his bachelor's degree in business administration at a private college in Pune, India. He taught statistics and mathematics there until he and his wife and his first two (of four) small daughters moved to Washington, D.C. in the late 1950's so that he could pursue graduate studies at the University of Maryland.
