ROBERT BENJAMIN DISNER--THE CHRONOLOGY OF MY SUCCESS

1966

RBD born at Sinai Hospital in Detroit on November 18th
As you can see, the hospital wasn't too crowded that day.

1969

Picture of my family in the den of our new house in Oak Park.
Still looking for a plaid jumper in my size like the one I'm sportin' here.

1970

Bag the first of many redheads (in nursery school). This picture also documents
one of the only times Beth Zatkin ever had any interest in what I was doing
(Beth is looking on from the left).

1971

Majored in dodge ball at Key Elementary School.
(Actually, I just stood up against this wall and kids threw balls at me).

1971

I set the fashion world on its ear with my rocket ship footie pajamas!

1978

Spend my middle school years at Frost (now called Roosevelt) thinking about
cracking open that algebra book. I never do.

1979

Spend a whole summer attempting to get the baseball to leave the tee. Mark Megerian,
the kid to my left, sent this picture in. He's a lefty, too!

On to the '80s...
