I describe aspects of my life in physics: the name I publish under, great physicists I have known, how I got into quantum foundations, what role I've played in it. My form is autobiographical, but my personal experience may illustrate what it was like being a physicist over the past 60 years. I offer some offbeat ways of thinking about some orthodox physics.
