The image shows Don Fox with a large amateur astronomy telescope, and publicly he is also known as an author, historian, musician, amateur astronomer, and advocate for the restaurant industry. Those varied interests evoke the spirit of the Renaissance ideal, the “universal person” who pursues knowledge across many disciplines. The parallels to Leonardo da Vinci include: * Astronomy – His telescope reflects a fascination with understanding the universe. * History – He has written extensively on military history. * Music – He plays the trumpet and flugelhorn. * Writing – He is an accomplished author of historical works. * Lifelong learning – Like many Renaissance thinkers, he appears to pursue knowledge simply because he enjoys discovering how the world works. Some people collect things. Others collect knowledge. Kudos to you Don for continuing to capture our minds and hearts in what you pursue!👏💕🇺🇸
