THAD MARKHAM
Designer Thad Markham
is a California native, born and raised in the mountains of Southern
California. His youth was spent skiing competitively every winter and racing
around Big Bear Lake on jet skis and water skis all summer. Santa Barbara
was the next stop, as Thad pursued an engineering degree at UCSB.
He worked in his field for a
mercifully brief time before striking out for more exciting pastures as an
entrepreneur. Thad moved to Cambria, California in 1992.
Years of hard work and
long hours later, his business a roaring success, Thad's ever-active mind
sought new challenges.
It all started with the
bananas.
One bright sunny morning
he was sitting at breakfast and his glance fell on a bunch of bananas on the
table. "That's funny," he said to himself, "it almost looks like they're
dancing."
Thus began his
preoccupation with the secret lives of fruits and vegetables...he began
haunting the produce department of the grocery store, his mind captivated
with a single burning question...
What
do the fruits and vegetables do at night when no one is watching?
