Profesionally, I was a Professor of English as a Second Language. I taught foreign students academic writing at Fordham University, Julliard and NYU for 40 years.

Today, I run a family business, managing commercial properties that we own.

My photography interest began at Smith College where I majored in English and the visual arts.

During my college years, I spent summers teaching black & white photography and dark room skills at Phillips Andover Academy in Massachusetts.

Until I bought an iPhone, I was a black & white photographer and printed my photographs in my own darkroom.

While living and teaching in NYC, I took several darkroom classes at the International Center of Photography and had a Nikon camera with a wide angle and a telephoto lenses.

I consider myself a Street Photographer who sees the world through a camera.

I am very fortunate to have travelled the world professionally and on holidays, and I photograph what I see - interesting people, objects and buildings, as well as amusing or beautiful scenes or situations.

I do edit and crop for clarity, but I don't add artificial objects or backgrounds.

My photographs are my escape from reality, as I try to capture a funny, happy, loving world of kindness and compassion.
