Chris was born and raised in Redondo Beach. As soon as he was tall enough for his chin to reach the counter, he was working with his grandmother Ruth Atherley at the Yum Yum Tree candy store located in the old Redondo Beach pier horseshoe before it was destroyed by the fire. Chris is often out on the Gallery's front porch greeting visitors and passersby.
