Kiki, Robert Escobar, loves history, folklore and martial arts, being a court recognized expert in weapons. He grew up in the pre-digital world where he and his friends skateboarded on the roofs of houses, climbed onto freight trains, made homemade weapons and diligently worked on their dream of one day being ninjas. When not thus wholesomely occupied, Kiki gazed with fascination at anything from an earlier era. He now lives with his wife and children in the Dallas area where he examines antiques, skateboards, practices karate, writes on martial arts and folklore/mythology, makes YouTube videos (channel- Object History) and essentially refuses to grow up.
