Today's Fireballer… My Wife Kathie

Malibu is fulla great peeps. Let's single 'em out, shall we?

People that put up with my shenanigans. And since I’m a pretty big personality in the energy sense of the word, it takes a lot for those around me to have patience. I’m always on the go…

A true force in her own right, she’s a Malibuite through and through, having been here over 30 years and being a creative powerhouse. Her costumes have graced movies, TV Shows, Game Networks and hundreds of commercials. But her support of FT has been, and continues to be, a gift from the infinite. She rallies her spirit when we film, directs me when I shoot cars to give them a warm glow, critiques my drawings and concepts with a graceful eye to make them the best they can be and ensures that I stay fit and healthy always. Wow.

We were married in 1996 and she jokingly said she’d be surprised if it lasted 3 years. She has more patience than she knows. And she’s Today’s Fireballer… My sweetie.
