He has a bachelors and master???s degrees in health and physical education, and a pre-doctorate in administration and supervision, retired in 1999 from Hamden High School, where he had been teaching for 33 years. also he is still an active npc judge to the best of my knowledge.

Katz was also a World Gym owner but stated he was making money hand over fist as a Planet Fitness owner after World sold to Planet.

And if you do a search on YouTube you might find a video of Katz's "Pumping Iron" hot rod car he had built to honor the film.
