Carpenters, The/Expert Profile
Expertise
I am able to answer the majority of questions (biographical as well as musical) regarding the Carpenters, especially Karen. There are, however, some questions that I believe only Richard would know the correct answer to.
Experience in the area
I have been a fan of their work since 1970 and have conducted extensive research for my own use. I also have an large collection of books, photographs, music and collectibles.
Education/Credentials
Nothing to do with the Carpenters, but I have a BSW in Social Work and a MA in Gerontology.
