| I attended the UW after high school. I graduated
in Education with an English major and a Communication Arts minor. After
that I taught high school in Freeport, Illinois, and Turtle Lake, Wisconsin.
At that point, I decided that I really didn’t want to be a public school
teacher anymore, and added some classes and skills so that I could work in
television and video production. At about the same time, I took a summer
school class entitled “Literature of the Outdoors” at Montana State
University where we not only read great books about man and nature, we also
wrote of our own experiences as we backpacked and climbed mountains in the
Rockies. That class changed my life. I knew I wanted to live in the west
among the mountains. Ever since 1976, I have lived in the West. I become a
TV director, and directed live newscasts in various areas, including San
Luis Obispo, Ca., and Boise, Idaho.
I moved to Boise in 1980, and hope I never leave. I love it here. We have
some of the greatest outdoor recreation you could imagine. Whitewater
kayaking, superb flyfishing, great skiing, and more. Furthermore, we can
drive 15 miles up the mountains and ski in powder, yet we rarely have to
drive on snow here in the valley.
Fly fishing is a passion for me. I’ve had several articles and photos
published on the subject, and hope to do more when I retire. I also enjoy
fly tying, which is what I’m doing in my photo. I am currently an
instructional TV manager for Boise State University (home of the “smurf
turf!”). Working here has allowed me to continue my work in broadcasting,
while also getting the chance to teach an occasional TV/video production
class. I have two great kids who are currently in college.

| There were 2 Mike Edwards in our graduating
class, and to make it more difficult we had the same middle initial. I am
listed as Michael in the year book.
Well, I married Sharon Dickinson from our class in 1972 and we have had
20 good years together. We have been married 37 but only about 20 have been
good. Only kidding (she really gets mad at me for that one). I had my own
gas station -- Belleville Mobil -- for about 5 years. When the economy and a
very long bridge repair made it financially impossible, I built custom vans
at Suburban Motors in Verona. Then I dabbled in carpentry but went back to
wrenching at John Erickson's Chevrolet in Verona. There I met my current
business partner, Brian, and we decided to start a remodeling business. So
for the past 15 years I have been the E of E&W Home Improvements. We do
anything from deck repair to building houses.
I have 4 children. The oldest Brandi (our only biological child) is
expecting our first grandchild the 7th of August. She owns Blooms Flower
Shop in Madison. Our other children are adopted and from Korea. Our second
oldest, Jenni, is a post-adoption specialist with the Minnesota agency she
was adopted through and is currently in graduate school in addition to
working full time.
My current hobby is working on my 1963 Mercury Meteor that I purchased
long before children, sold to help pay for the adoption fees, and bought
back almost 20 years to the day after selling. I also have a 1935 Ford 5
window coupe that has drained finances over the past 30 years. Sharon is
into horses and now we both have a horse and have been riding more. My wife
and I have a cabin on a small lake near Hayward and enjoy fishing.
