Arthur Grossman (aka Grossie) wanted to be a policeman all his life. He is a struggling stand-up comic[1] and a feature writer for the magazine The Highway Patrolman.[2]

According to Grossman (and his family album), he has always been overweight, including his time in the service and just before he got married.[3]

He is an expert in the rules of roller hockey. He enjoys playing chess and would have won the CHP tournament if he didn't knock over the board.[4] Once, he coached the CHP Central basketball team.[5]

He was hospitalized after being attacked by a tow truck while on duty,[6] suffering from shock, as well as crashing while chasing an Edsel and suffering a broken jaw.

As of 1999, Grossman is a detective for the California Highway Patrol.[7]
