He sits outside a neighborhood furniture shop, Browdis Place (owned by his friend, Browdis), playing his keyboard, singing lounge-type melodies to the traffic skirting by and helping out whenever there are customers. Walter is from New Jersey (where he received an associate's degree in music) and has been living in Miami for 20 years. He spoke about his daughter with a father's pride and love, a daughter who graduated from Rutgers University with a criminal justice degree.
"I play the music in front of the store because it attracts the customers." He's laid-back, comfortable, parked in front of his keyboard, work gloves shoved in his back pocket, singing and playing, seeming only to use the music pages as reference or inspiration.
He's there all the time, singing and playing, or simply helping out at Browdis Place.
