John J. Diaz was born on June 25, 1935 in 'Spanish Harlem', New York City and was raised in the catholic Homes of Rockland County, New York. He continues to reside in his beloved native state and vows to remain a New Yorker for life. John proudly claims that, 'This is the most vibrant and exciting state in the USA, and its beautiful mountain ranges, cities and quaint towns are second to none.'Mr. Diaz retired from business in 1996 and is now pursuing careers as an artist and a writer. He wants to concentrate on art for a year, and plans to write a book about his dangerous adventures as a bachelor in the Big Apple, during the wild nineteen sixties and seventies.
