i need help on information on someone

[Fiendlover]

hello. for a karate project im writing down who the greatest martial artists to me are and one of them is Mr. Steve Fisher. He's the head of Steve Fisher Karate Studio and i can't find any information about him. there are little blurbs here and there but nothing on his biography and i was wondering, if there are any students of his here, if someone could enlighten me about his biography.

I am not a student of Steve Fisher, but I remember him from the "old school days". IIRC, he was a student of Matt Stone, he was a top point fighter on the US national scene back in the late'70's and early '80's, but he was sidelined by a knee injury. I don't recall if he ever came back from that in competition. I do remeber that his school was well known and respected for some hardcore, blood and guts sparring and training. Most of it was full contact with no pads or safety gear.
