Robert West

Robert West grew up in Indianapolis where he played football, enjoyed annual trips to the time trials for the Indy 500 and generally survived life as a PK: “Preacher’s Kid.” He eventually migrated to California (sort of the opposite of Beamer, who left California for Middle America) where he worked as Theatre Director at Pepperdine University in Malibu. Since then he has imported antiques, worked in the film industry as a story editor and associate producer, been a computer programmer, made architectural models, sold real estate, written radio commercials…and along the way raised three sons.

Rob lives with his wife and family near Los Angeles. He is active in music and dramatic ministries with his local church and frequently appears as an actor with several regional theatrical companies. He can also be found, on occasion, in the tree house shaped like a ship that he built with his sons in the back yard.
