Born on March 3, 1946, in the Bronx, N.Y., Skip was the eldest of five siblings. As a boy, he roamed the city, trick-or-treating on subway cars, sneaking into the Philharmonic and exploring Harlem and the Bronx. In high school, he played bass drum in the marching band in Hoboken, N.J., but left school just before graduation to enlist in the U.S. Army.
