Early life and education

Hart was born at the St. Anthony Hospital in Dodge City, Kansas. He grew up in Wilmington, North Carolina and St. Louis, Missouri. Majoring in mathematics at Dartmouth College, he developed a seven-step algorithm for determining the day of the week in your head using simple arithmetic, and published "A New Fast Sorting Algorithm" in Creative Computing Magazine, and "Pattern Analysis as a Tool for Inventing Algorithms" in Software—Practice & Experience.

Career

In partnership with his sister, Amoret Phillips, web painter, his websites include "Non-escalating Verbal Self-defense," "Succinct News," "Moon Fooling," and "The Black Pool."

In pioneering therapeutic art, he balances childhood sexual abuse with cultural and political expressionism, at another website, "Talifish Studio," writing extensively about those experiences at "Deadbeat Paying Job," and "Magic Wand Garage."

Among people "pouring their hearts out on the Internet," his research on "What to say to mean people, to phony people, and to stupid people, without getting down into their gutter" found its roots in a rare self-published book, It's a Trade Secret.

He also drives Taxi 1010 in San Francisco, California.

Personal life

Hart resides in Berkeley, California.
