My interest in photography began while I was in the U.S. Navy serving in the Far East. Photographing the faces of the Vietnamese people during Operation Frequent Wind (the evacuation of Vietnam) convinced me that my future was going to be behind a camera.

Following active duty, I joined Newsweek magazine where I worked for 16 years in their photo lab, as well as photographing for their advertising special sections area.

While still working for the magazine, I continued to travel and photograph worldwide on photo assignments first for the Naval Reserve and now for the Air National Guard.

Currently, I am the photographer for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority for the State of New York. The MTA oversees the New York City Transit Authority, Long Island Rail Road, Long Island Bus, Metro-North Railroad and Bridges and Tunnels. I produced the images for their annual reports, brochures and corporate events. I have also documented the artists - and their artwork - for the MTA's Arts For Transit program.
