Greetings! I’m John Hotchner, Falls Church, VA, collector since age 5. Major focus is USA and worldwide stamps with production varieties (EFOs) but I also collect about 20 other countries that I have lived in, visited, or have found to be interesting from a professional standpoint. Am retired from US Department of State after 45 years of service. Now devote my time to collecting activities, philatelic writing, exhibiting (hopefully shows will return in 2021), and work for philatelic organizations.
