Kurt was raised in Jacksonville Beach, attending Fletcher High when it
was still in the old brick building. His father was a decorated WWII veteran
who participated in D-Day. After his honorable discharge, he attended
UF Law School, and then worked with the FBI and the State Attorney's
Office. He became a well-respected Judge in Duval County, where he served
on the bench for over 32 years.
Kurt followed his dad into the practice of law, attending college and law
school in Florida. Upon graduation, Kurt returned to Jacksonville with
the State Attorney's Office. After a successful career with the State
Attorney, Kurt opened his own practice in Jacksonville Beach in 1982.
He carried on the community activism learned from his parents and raised
two outstanding boys. His eldest son teaches overseas in Europe and his
younger son is a chef in Oregon. Kurt has been married to his high school
sweetheart, Linda, for more years than they care to admit. Kurt retired
in 2005 and maintains a home in Jacksonville Beach and another in Summerland Key.
