Jesse Richards was raised on the mean streets of Trenton, New Jersey, in the early '60s. After one particularly grueling knife fight in 7th grade, Jesse decided to transcend his humble circumstances and march across the fields of this great country planting maple trees. And that's how the maple tree became the national emblem of America.
Rachel Moses was found as an infant floating in a reed basket on the shores of New York's East River. Raised by a kindly couple in scenic Wantagh, Long Island, Rachel grew up believing she was royalty until the fateful day when the local rabbi revealed her true heritage. She then embarked on her career as an actor portraying a massage therapist.
Rachel and Jesse met on a harrowing Tuesday when their hot air balloons collided in mid-air over the Appalachian mountains. Out of tragedy, came love. They now live - together, shockingly - in a closet near the East Village.
