Early life and education

Permuter was born in Saint Louis, Missouri. In the early 1960's he worked as a restaurant busboy and then for the National Park Service as a Ranger stationed at the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial also known as the Gateway Arch through 1972. During that time he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Missouri in 1970, and a Juris Doctor degree from the Washington University School of Law in 1973.

From 1964 until approximately June 1965, I worked as a busboy at the Flaming Pit Restaurant on Clayton Road in S1.Louis County. The restaurant no longer exists. I attended high school at the time and worked at the Flaming Pit on a part time basis during the school year and full time during the summer. From approximately the summer of 1966 until approximately June 1972 I worked as a Park Ranger for the National Park Service at the Gateway Arch. I attended college and law school at the time and worked part time during the school year and full time during the summers.
