Raphael Hieronymus Manezes was born in Bombay, illegitimately to a Catholic priest. He used to sing silly versions of the songs in church and secretly kiss girls behind the choir stall. He moved to New York (changing his name to Geronimo Manezes) and worked in his uncle’s architecture firm for some time. Then he married Ella Elfenbein and started his gardening business, both of which brought him great joy in life. He was a Duniazat.
