How would you define social responsibility?

I define social responsibility by leaving our planet in a better state than the one we were born on. If you are in business, think of a triple bottom line; People, Profit and Planet. “You can reduce the poverty footprint by reducing the carbon footprint. ™”

Do you have any tattoos that relate to your social/charitable beliefs/ work?

Yes. Many of my tats are directly related to my social and charitable beliefs and work. The Rock and Wrap It Up! logo is on my right arm, with my father’s concentration camp number in it, 64559. This was my first tattoo finished 15 years ago.

My father’s last death camp, Waldenberg Gross Rosen is on my arm with the date of his liberation, 5-8-45. The death camp where my family was murdered is on the back of my arm where I can’t see it, Auschwitz Birkenau, 6-8-42.

I also have the Twin Towers, the location of the organization’s first fundraiser, and the initials “JM”, where my friend and Rock and Wrap It Up! Board Member, Jay Magazine, was killed 9-11-01.

I also have a DNA double-helix on my calve, signed and tattooed over, by Nobel prize winner, Dr. James Watson. I co-founded a DNA project, The DNA Shoah Project, which puts together families separated after WW II.

I am a deadhead and have Grateful Dead artwork as well. My favorite is a line on my shoulder from St Stephen- “One man gathers what another man spills.” I have Jerry’s guitar, Tiger, on my left chest and will have another one of his guitars, Wolf, done next.

I am proud that many of my tats were designed and inked by my daughter, Horiyuki.

Quick list of tattoos/mention artists if you’d like:

Artists from State of Grace in San Jose, CA: Horiyuki, Horitomo, and Horitaka.
Paul Invenco (formerly of Spider Web, NY)
Rhonda (formerly of Eastside Ink, NY)
Koz of New York Adorned, NY and Williamsberg, NY
Mike Rubendall of King’s Avenue, Massapequa, NY
