Brief Bio
After high school I spent 8 years at Cornell (BS and PhD in Applied Physics), married Miriam Buskila in Ashkelon, Israel in 1979. (Miriam grew up on a farm - moshav Beth Shikma). Had a postdoc for 2 years at the Technion in Haifa where Carmit was born. Was at the Naval Research Lab after that, and since 1986 have been VP and co-founder of Infrared Focal Systems in Silver Spring, MD. We have 3 girls, now all out of the house (Tamar lives and studies in Israel, Carmit studies jewelry making in Florence, Italy, and Yonina is a 2nd grade teacher here). Astronomy is (still) my main hobby. I also like to swim, bike, play tennis and ski. We also travel a lot for business and vacation. (best trip - Sydney, Australia and the Great Barrier Reef). Have discovered 5 new asteroids so far! (none headed our way, fortunately!)
