Abstract
Hebert was born in 1946 in Rockford, IL, a mid-sized industrial city 90 miles northwest of Chicago. When Hebert was 5, his father, an electrical contractor, won a subcontract from the Morton Salt Company to develop the sea salt rights to and facilities in a small Bahamian island called Great Inagua, a “fairly primitive” place, according to Hebert, within sight of Cuba. Island life was simple, says Hebert. “We had only short-wave radio contact with Nassau, and a tanker would come in once a month with supplies for the whole population of the island,” he recalls.
