Ken Price
" I met Bengston in 1953 when I was surfing at Doheny Beach. I grew up at the beach so surfing came naturally to me. We had really long boards made of balsa wood that weighed over 100 pounds. All you needed was a pair of trunks and a board, and we got our trunks at the Goodwill so we all had hundreds of pairs. We weren't rich but you could live on very little money in those days. Bengston and a guy named Tom O'Grady had gigs as garbage men, and people would leave entire, unopened Chinese food meals in the trash at the beach. We ate a lot of good food out of the garbage."
