So what's the story on the funny name? Aiga Publications was founded in 1981 in Baton Rouge, LA by Ken's wife, Fay, a cultural anthropologist with a strong interest in Polynesian cultures. The word aiga is a Samoan word meaning "family", in the sense of an extended family including parents, children, grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, etc. We thought the name was appropriate for a family enterprise, and were somewhat surprised to receive occasional orders for publications from the American Institute of Graphic Artists. This inspired the firm policy of always describing the company name as "Aiga Publications", never as "AIGA Publications." After publishing Ken's first bridge book, 3-D and the MAFIA Club, Fay's book, A Special Kind of Freedom, a cookbook, and several public health pamphlets on Hansen's Disease, we moved to Laie in 1982 and built a geodesic dome home here in Laie, a small college town dominated by the Hawaii branch of Brigham Young University. Ken spent several years at Pearl Harbor developing an Automated Publishing program for the Navy's use in producing technical manuals and on committee work aimed at developing Automated Publishing standards for the Department of Defense. After Fay's death in 1986, Ken eventually returned in 1990 to the bridge wars, where his main claim to distinction had been that he was almost certainly the only player in ACBL history to make Life Master by winning a Regional Individual. Kathryn joined her Dad here in Laie in 1996 after a divorce, and plunged enthusiastically into the Oahu bridge scene as the prize pupil whose success inspired Dear Old Dad to begin writing Foundations of Modern American Bidding.
