Mak One originally started his career as a roadie and driver for the legendry west coast band 'The Grateful Dead', before moving on to work with such legends as Gram Parsons, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Waylon Jennings and Iron Butterly, among others. In between gigs, Mak One dabbled in the art world, where his interest in graffiti developed, and he eventually gave up the roadie work to concentrate on his art. Following his arrest crossing the mexican border in 1977, Mak One was charged with human trafficking, possession of narcotics and possession of unlawful pornographic imagery.
