High School.
After a painful year at my neighborhood high school, my mother had the good sense to transfer me to a school downtown, Cass Technical High School, where students majored in a subject much to their liking and had academics around it. I majored in commercial art. One art teacher made the difference, Leonard Johnson. One day in his class I suddenly GOT IT! From that day on I was straight A art student. I flunked all my academics. Did summer school every year to make up.
