[He] served in the United States Army from 1952-54, spending one year in Japan. This encounter with the Japanese culture affected his entire life. He became interested in calligraphy and Noh, classical Japanese performance that combines elements of drama, music and poetry. Returning to the United States, he joined the Beat Generation and seriously explored Zen Buddhism.
