Photography has been my only career, having been first being published in my teens. Professional experiences contribute to deep knowledge in all facets of this area of visual communications, I have been active in the industry during technical advances from black & white or color analog, through all the advances of digital photography.
While a newspaper staff photographer & picture editor, documentary & breaking-news coverage garnered three nominations for the prestigious Pulitzer Prize for Photography.
Assignments have taken me to over 40 countries worldwide & nearly the entirety of the United States. Since 2000, my attention has been on producing long-term photographic essays.
As a curator I’ve assembled showings for public installations for hospitals, galleries & Art Museums. Personal photographic art has been exhibited in single & group shows over three decades.
My single images & series have garnered 50 awards in 2020 & 2021 alone, in international photography competitions.
