2. his biography is amazing
Matt attended high school at Crespi Carmelite High School in Encino, California, where he was the Student Body President, a Captain of the Varsity Track team, and won the outstanding student award. Matt attended and graduated with honors from Stanford University, and has lived and worked in Los Angeles, Malibu, Washington D.C., New York, Paris, London, Switzerland and Brazil. Among the companies he currently runs are

Artists In Motion Inc.™
LowestPriceDomain.com ™
Athletes In Motion ™
He currently divides his time between California, where is is pursuing creative work as an actor, director, screenwriter, composer, recording artist, songwriter, and producer in the film and music businesses; the East Coast, where he is an entrepreneur and manages some operating companies and internet start-ups; and various international locations in Europe, Asia and South America, where he is involved in international business and consulting, or soon will be. Matt paints oils and watercolors in his spare time, and is a collector of fine art, mostly paintings and sculpture. He is currently editing for publication a book on the Poetry of William Carlos Williams, and the novel "The Activist." He is also preparing to publish his first collections of poetry, short stories and childrens stories. All of these will be available for sale at the ArtistsInMotion.com web site.

Matt speaks fluent English, French and Portuguese, some Spanish, which he is currently improving, and a little German and Italian. His hobbies include skiing, hiking, boating, all water sports, painting, dancing, reading, travel, nature, learning, animals of all kinds, cooking, fine food and finer conversation.

Matt has volunteered his time to feed the homeless, clean up pollution, protect nature and endangered species, influence government policy and ensure the Internet develops to its full potential with equal opportunity and access to all.

Matt Hooker believes that anything is possible through hard work and perseverance. His personal statement is: "Please don't try to limit me by your perception of my limitations or by your perception of your own."

Mr. Hooker is a direct descendant of General Joseph "Fighting Joe" Hooker of the Civil War, who fought for the North, and who President Lincoln put in charge of the Army of the Potamic, the commander-in-chief of the Union's army. Fighting Joe provided his officers with women (first in the Mexican-American war), who became known as "Hooker's girls", later just shortened to "hookers"; and he is believed to be a descendant of Thomas Hooker, who sailed to America on the Mayflower. Candidate Hooker believes that love can only be freely given, never bought or sold, and thus would never approve of his illustrious ancestors' conduct.

Thanks for your support.
