In 1980, he was recognized as one of the top Greco-Roman wrestlers in the country, and missed the opportunity to qualify to compete in the Olympics when President Carter withdrew the US from participation. He told us as an aside that his big brother John took up body-building in an effort to be able to “beat up” his younger brother. (Should we give John Huber equal time to talk about family?)
Paul did some modeling in his youth, and was in movies – well, at least one!
He has three daughters: Micaela, who is awaiting results of the California bar exam in order to practice law, Lexy who is nearing the end of a tour with the Peace Corps in Africa, and Olivia who is stationed in Virginia as a member of the U S Navy where she is on the crew that pampers a Navy jet fighter.
Good talk, Paul. Bob Williams would have rated your talk at least a 9-1/2 out of 10 points.
