Bankers, Bohemians, and California Royalty

I wrote and posted the following in 2006. Two years later I formed the Bohemian Bank. Last week I talked to my remaining partner, Marilyn Reed, about being General Manager of the Rosamond Legacy. My niece, Drew Benton, is in crisis after learning her father, Garth Benton, has cancer, and may not have long to live. Garth lives with is daughter, ad renders murals in her bedroom, while she sleeps on the couch. Garth is the cousin of the famous artist, Thomas Hart Benton. Drew has helped her father on several commissions, and may continue his creative legacy when he is gone. Drew is the daughter of the world famous artist, Rosamond, who died in 1994. She is also kin to Lloyd Tevis the founder of Wells Fargo Bank.

Marilyn is the wife of Jazz Artist, Kenny Reed.
