Personal

Rick was born in Santa Monica, California and grew up in the West Los Angeles area moving to the Santa Ynez Valley in 1966, where he graduated from Midland School, a college-prep boarding high school. He attended United States International University, Stanford University and University of California Santa Barbara where he majored in Film Studies and English. His poetry book, Within the Shells, was published in 1972. Rick's family has been active with Natural Resource Exploration, California Ranching and Land Development in the Santa Clarita Valley since the 1940's. This legacy, in part, has given him a foundation for his real estate career. Rick & Kathy have two married children: R. Barron Sawyer (with grandson “Peter Owen) and Holly Ann Misic (with twin granddaughters Katelyn & Jasmine).

The Sawyer’s currently live and work in Santa Barbara and at The Hollister Ranch.
