About Kevin Irvin
Kevin Irvin was born in Evansville, Indiana on July 13th, 1959. Thank God it wasn't a Friday. His parents, Bill and Nyda Irvin, owned a restaurant / bar called Billy's and then The Oaks and finally the Gemeca Inn. It goes without saying that Kevin grew up in the restaurant business and to this day he prefers to have dinner at the bar.
His grandmother was the first person to encourage him in the arts. She would always introduce him to her friends as the little artist in the family. It was his grandfather however who exposed him to the wonder of tools and machines. A tool and die maker, his grandfather would busy himself with a variety of projects in his basement shop and allow Kevin to help by cutting out shapes on a scroll saw at age eight. Kevin was unable to take art classes in high school due to his guidance councelor's insistence that he concentrate on business and science.
