About Rick Summerhill

I was born in Chicago, Illinois, but moved to a more rural setting on going to college. I've lived in the country ever since, in wonderful places like Monmouth, Illinois; Iowa City, Iowa; Columbia, Missouri; Princeton, New Jersey; Manhattan, Kansas; and now Manchester, Michigan, where I plan to live the rest of my life with my wonderful wife Carolyn. My real home, however, will always be Kansas, having spent 28 years there, building furniture off and on, and taking photos of the tall-grass prairies of the Flinthills. After my formal education was completed, including a PhD from the University of Iowa and a post doctoral postion at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, I've spent 20 years as a mathematician, 20 years in data networking, and now I'm concentrating on woodworking and photography.

Woodworking is not a new avocation - I've been building furnature for most of my life. Growing up in Chicago, I often worked on small projects made of wood. My real woodworking life began in Kansas, however, where I had space and time to put together my first shop. Now that I'm retired, I have much more time to spend on woodworking and have a well equipted shop.
