Name/Title
SF SC - Jeremy Schott - Dead Man WalkingDescription
Jeremy grew up in Levittown, the famous planned community on Long Island, in the 1950s. He learned to play the piano at age 4 and still plays today. He also plays bass guitar daily. He took art classes in school and was a film major in college. He studied photography and print making as well. He moved to the Bay Area to attend the California Culinary Academy in 1991, after receiving a small inheritance. Working mostly in French restaurants, he was a chef for five years. At that point Acme Bread (a local favorite) was just getting started and he decided to become a baker.
Jeremy started coming to AWE art classes 13 years ago. He likes to work mostly in acrylics. He considers himself a gentle person and he says “Friendship and good health are the most important” things to him now. He walks two miles every day, rain or shine.
These days Jeremy can use some extra financial help and so he panhandles in West Portal one day a week. He enjoys talking to the people he meets, especially the people who he engages with on a regular basis.
