BOOKS

From Jeffboat to Hollywood and Back

By Eric George

T

he route from the Jeffboat shipyard in Jeffersonville. Ind., to Hollywood, Calif., may be the road almost never traveled, but R. Barker Price made the trip in a 1980 Mazda. The car had most of its contents stolen in a motel parking lot on Price’s first night of fulfilling a dream, but, fortunately, his Smith-Corona typewriter and the screenplay he’d written for the “Murder She Wrote” television series were spared.

Price was 31 years old, creative, rolling the career dice and, soon, very lucky.

Screenplay in hand, he quickly found an agent who was also entering the film industry and looking for clients. She shopped his script to “Murder She Wrote.”

“The producer at ‘Murder She Wrote’ ran a very tight ship,” Price recalls. “But a door cracked open just a little, the stars aligned and they bought my script.” His episode aired the very week that TV Guide ran a cover story about the series, and Price’s screenplay became the most widely watched segment in the show’s history.

The fast track was nothing new for Price. He had spent six years at Jeffboat cycling through a series of jobs along the path to upper management. He built his first boat – an English punt – and launched it during the Ohio River flood of 1964. By his early 20s, Price had started a boat-building business. By the time he’d left for Hollywood, he was a vice-president and the general manager of the nation’s largest inland shipyard, responsible for the design and construction of barges and other projects.

“A good future lay ahead,” Price says. But he had long kept a journal and written television scripts “for fun.” Story ideas and the script-writing formula came easily for him, and when a company personality test confirmed his creative side, it was the push he needed to leave.

During the 10 years he spent in Hollywood, Price sold options on roughly two screenplays a year. “Murder She Wrote” produced three more of his scripts. He also co-wrote the 1988 horror movie “Catacombs,” and once wrote scripts for Disney and the Playboy Channel simultaneously. Price made a modest living, but admits, “I could never break into the inner fraternity.” He married, returned home and took up where he’d left off – at Jeffboat – and was there for 13 more years. Price is now a contract manager for corporate boat buyers and continues to write.

“Turf Wars” is Price’s first novel. Based on his unsold screenplay set in Louisville, the story explores the interplay between two men – a baby boomer and a millennial – as they reinvent their broken lives. “It has some heart, some humor, and is a poignant look at some important subjects,” Price says. Five reviewers have rated the book five stars on Amazon, where it is available for purchase or downloading.

Carmichael’s Bookstore also sells copies.

And Price’s former projects are still in play. He is currently nudging two screenplays into novels, and recently received a request for an interview from a writer in Rome who is compiling a book about underrated horror movies. To Price’s surprise, “Catacombs” has become a cult classic in Italy. R

FEATURE STORY

Dan and Susan Rhema recently purchased property on the corner of 17th and West Market where they plan to live and work. The property was a longtime home to The HUB, a retail store that carried men’s clothing and accessories. The couple will renovate the buildings and rent space to tenants. They hope to move in six months, and plan to open their respective businesses within a year.

Heading West

D

an and Susan Rhema had a long list of prerequisites when they started searching for a building six months ago. Susan, a psychotherapist, will receive her doctorate in social work in December. She wanted a place large enough to accommodate the Three Stones Center, a trauma facility she plans to open, and a gallery for Dan, who is a visionary artist. In addition, many of Susan’s patients are immigrants and refugees, so the building had to be on a bus line and, ideally, close to downtown. Lastly, the couple planned to finance their ventures by selling their Old Louisville home, so they also needed living space.

FEATURE STORY

With all of these requirements, the Rhemas knew their options were limited, especially if they also wanted to find the property at an affordable price. They looked in Butchertown, Smoketown, and at several places along Broadway. Finally, they settled on two buildings near the border of the Russell and Portland neighborhoods – 1701 and 1703 W. Market St. The buildings had been connected when they housed The HUB department store, but the Rhemas plan on returning them to separate properties. One building will house Susan’s trauma center and Dan’s art gallery, Altered Visions Art, and the couple will live on the remaining two floors. The second building will be rental property. Henry Yoffee, The HUB’s owner, has talked to the Rhemas about leasing space for a smaller version of his store. Dan Rhema likes the idea because he says the building has housed millinery or clothing stores for the last 100 years. There will also be two apartments above the store.

The Rhemas got all of this for a whopping $64,000. The combined rents should cover their mortgage. Dan says it is a deal you can only find in West Louisville these days.

“Not being from Louisville, we didn’t have any negative connotations about West Louisville or Portland,” he says.

“When people think about Louisville it is not just one entity, it’s made up of all of these little components of neighborhoods: the Highlands, Frankfort Avenue. This is just another part of Louisville that is in need of some money being put into it.”

Dan plans to do most of the work on the two properties himself, but Shine Contracting will handle some of it. Dan grew up in public housing in Baltimore, where he and his brother refurbished old housing in several depressed neighborhoods. Susan grew up in Reading, Penn., but she has traveled the world in her work with nonprofits. The couple moved to Louisville in 1995, after Susan got a job with the

Presbyterian Church. The Portland buildings are the Rhemas’ sixth renovation project.

“Seven, 10 years ago, people were questioning us for wanting to live in Old Louisville,” Dan remembers. “West Louisville has the exact same stuff that Old Louisville has. The exact same type of buildings: gorgeous, Victorian-era homes.

And the parks – I can see Shawnee Park from my roof. If you describe it that way, it’s no different than what we have in Old Louisville. It has its rough areas. We are gambling, but we believe this is going to pay off.”

The Rhemas are joining a stampede of public and private interest in West Louisville. Most of the investment is centered around, but not limited to, Portland. The Portland neighborhood generally falls between Interstate 264 (western boundary), Tenth Street (eastern boundary), the Ohio River (northern boundary), and Market Street (southern boundary). Married artists Aron Conaway and Hallie Jones have reopened the performance venue Nelligan Hall at 2010 Portland Ave., and they are also renting artist studios and storage space at the Mammoth near 13th and Broadway.

Green Building owner Gill Holland, who is given a lot of credit for the redevelopment of East Market Street into the area known as NuLu, has formed the Portland Investment Initiative to raise $25 million in investments for the area.

Holland is focusing his efforts between 15th and 26th streets, from Market Street to Portland Avenue. The North Carolina native says he’s been intrigued by West Louisville’s potential since he first moved to the city eight years ago.

“Sometimes it takes someone from the outside to see potential, where others see historical failure or lack of momentum,” he explains. “I think it is the same with NuLu. If you walk up and down the street, I bet a solid 50 percent are not Louisville natives. It’s a good mix of long-term locals – people who stayed and preserved their buildings for decades – and then

Yard Larceny

ILLUSTRATION: MACK DRYDEN

I

f you parked a slightly-used but fully functional Harley-Davidson on your lawn among your other yard-sale white elephants and put a $20 price-tag on it, an Early Bird would run his hand over the buttery leather seat, nudge the brand-new tires, note the gleaming paint job and flawless chrome tailpipes, then ask if it runs well. You’d start it up, rev the full-throated engine just enough to make the neighbors pray that it sells, and turn it off. The would-be buyer would cock his head, squint thoughtfully and say, “Would you take ten for it?”

Yard sales are nature’s way of allowing a city’s residents to transfer their unwanted possessions to each other’s homes without the awkwardness of going door-to-door.

Haggling is expected, of course, but the approach can be either neighborly or insulting.

We had several yard sales to lighten the load for our move from LA, and found that certain types of bargain-trollers appear every time – even here in the Highlands.

You can count on a visit from The Haggler From Hell, for example. After we got a DVD player a few years back, I put a $20 tag on our perfectly good VCR, thinking that surely someone who had a stash of VHS tapes would quickly snap up a $160 piece of electronics at an 87 percent discount. I had it plugged in and operational for skeptics and, sure enough, an HFH checked it out. Crossing his arms, he said, “Would you take ten?” I frowned, shrugged, remembered that I just wanted to get rid of it, and said yes, I’d take the ten. He said, “Let me think about it,” and continued inspecting our junk.

While fuming, I sold a pile of miscellaneous kitchen utensils and a few towels to a sweet woman who appreciated the bargain. Then the HFH ambled back over and said, “I’ll give you five.”

Maybe it was the arrogance of the declarative sentence that set me off. “Stay right here,” I said. “This’ll be fun.” I walked into my garage and came back with a twelvepound sledgehammer. I set the VCR on our concrete driveway and said, “I’d give five bucks for an adrenaline rush, so stand back, I don’t want you suing me for getting shrapnel in your ankles.” He backed away, stammering: “Bu–shrapnel? What? You’re not guh–?”

I got a good grip and swung the sledgehammer into slamming position. He blurted, “Wait! Wait a minute!” I stopped. He gave me a weak grin and said, “Okay, I’ll give you ten.”

I said, “No, thanks. I’d rather smash your VCR,” as I cocked the sledgehammer again.

“Hold on! Wait!” he said, and I nearly sprained a shoulder putting on the brakes.

Attracted by the commotion, another guy walked over and asked why I was going to destroy my VCR. The HFH huffed, “Because I won’t give him twenty bucks for it!”

“Hmph. Does it work?” said the other guy, clearly interested.

“Hey, wait a minute!” the HFH protested. “I was here first!”

“I’ll give you twenty bucks for it,” offered the second guy.

I liked this guy.

The HFH griped and sputtered and railed, and I was enjoying it so much I just couldn’t resist: “That’s okay,” I said. “I’ll take ten.” R Mack Dryden is a comedian whose gut-busting videos can be seen at www. mackdryden.com. Reach him at mackdryden@yahoo.com.

intimate series of three photographs.

Each participant will have a role in planning, implementing and reviewing the family photo documentation process, and the final photographs will be the start of a family photo tree for each child.

The photo equipment provided will stay with the participant, which means all gifts given via power2give.org will keep on giving and inspiring that young person beyond the end of the program.

The total cost for 15 new digital cameras with USB flash drives and memory cards is $4,350.

To donate funds for the project, visit power2give.org, select the state and community, and choose “Picture Love” from the list. For more information, call LVAA at (502) 584-8166.

or many people, a health scare is a catalyst for change.

They may quit smoking, lose weight, or just take better care of themselves ... or they may switch careers.

Highlands native Sandy Pike moved to the Bay Area in the late ‘60s, where she raised her family and trained as a chef. Upon returning to Louisville in the early ‘80s, she continued her restaurant work, owning Jack Fry’s, among other eateries. But in 2005, when a family member faced a diabetes diagnosis, Sandy turned her talents to helping an ailing relative. Home Cuisine, a healthy meal delivery service, evolved out of that effort.

Sandy’s daughter, Mae Pike, Home Cuisine’s vice president, explains that their relative couldn’t cook and was making herself sick by not following her doctor’s instructions. “She didn’t have the knowledge,” says Mae. “So my mom ended up cooking meals and dropping them off.”

Nine years later, Home Cuisine’s clientele has grown

beyond its core base of diabetics to become a kind of “meals on wheels” for people looking to create or maintain good health. With twice-weekly deliveries of menu plans – ranging from dinners only to full family diets, including Paleo, vegan and everything in between - Home Cuisine’s meals can be found on the tables of everyone from students to politicians. Subscribers can even save delivery costs by picking up their orders at Rainbow Blossom, with which Home Cuisine has a partnership.

“We’re pretty flexible,” says Mae. “Some people are just too busy to cook anything. Some people want to eat healthy during the week and go out on the weekends.

Some people have health issues and need to eat this very specific diet. People who aren’t feeling good throw their hands up in the air and it can be detrimental.”

Mae knows of what she speaks. While her mom followed her culinary dreams, Mae opted for business school.

Later, working as an event planner, she came to see the appeal of eating beyond the banquet hall. “I was working

Mae Pike, who owns Home Cuisine with her mother, Sandy, prepares a batch of ratatouille in the company’s St. Matthews kitchen. Meal plans feature vegan diets as well as those that follow the Paleo diet. Food allergies are also a consideration when planning menus.

“We’re pretty flexible,” says Mae.

Even though many of their customers are healthy overall, the 10-person company adheres to American Diabetic Association and American Heart Association guidelines; clearly, the Pikes want their customers around for a long time.

One customer, in fact, has been there from the start. Mary Myers, who lives in Hollow Creek, saw an ad for Home Cuisine shortly after her husband’s death. “I didn’t feel like cooking, I didn’t want to eat ... but when I was getting the food brought in, I thought I’d better eat because I didn’t want to waste it. They’re good, nourishing meals.” Myers found that the Pikes nourished not only her body but also her heart, as the Home PHOTOS: BRIANBOHANNON.COM Cuisine crew provided comfort food for Home Cuisine’s meal plans follow the her son, Lonnie, who suffered from mulguidelines of the American Diabetic tiple myeloma. “Sandy would call and ask Association and the American Heart Association.

She just makes special orders are delivered to customers’ homes things and does special things.” or may be picked up at any Rainbow Today, Mae, who “grew up cooking,” Blossom location twice a week. conducts the bulk of the operations. (“I’ve been in the kitchen long enough,” says Sandy.) But Mae still looks up to her mother. “Mom raised us, then moved to Louisville. And I think she was blown away that nothing that was being done in California was done here,” she says. “She really made a go of it, which wasn’t easy for a woman in the ‘80s. I’m dazzled.”
