Andy Warhol, Duane Michals and I were all born in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Pittsburgh. Ohio University was where I acquired a Bachelors degree in Fine Arts / Photography in 1979. Upon graduation, I took my portfolio to New York City where great interest was taken in my work, but due to the recession, no job. I followed my brother to Rochester, New York, where I have made my home.
I enjoy shaping light and sharing my unique perspective with others. I am always trying to challenge myself and the viewer with some thing unique and different. My photographic accomplishments have included annual reports, rock n' roll promos and many local gallery showings. The Elizabeth Collection Gallery represents me, here in Rochester. I pride myself on the fact that none of my images have been altered digitally. Every image here is either as the camera saw it or manipulated in the darkroom. I simply use my computer as a tool to get my work out on the web. I hope you enjoy my images.
