Amron was born in 1948 in Brooklyn in a family of strict Jewish beliefs and established mores. His father had a butcher's shop, his grandfather was a butcher too, but the boy did not want to continue the dynasty. He adored mechanisms - 9 years easily repaired neighbors' washing machines, refrigerators and radio, and in the 10 years for the fun he fashioned toy laser pistol.
