Mark never built under his own name, except for some work for friends
and such. So you're not going to see much of his work out there. As I
remember it he worked at Santana first in the mid-70s. Then he was
back in Seattle at R&E Cycles for a few years, then off to Davidson for
many years. He ended his building career in '94(?) while working for
Ti Cycles. I'm with Curt as far as Mark's skills as a builder and I've
said it before, if I was to have anyone else build me a frame it would
be him. Here's a few pics of his frames:

PS: Also Curt's ex-mentor Dan Winn should be on the short list too.
