WelcomeI am a literary photographer specializing in author photographs for book jackets, publicity use, and publication in newspapers, magazines, film and television, and on web sites. I have an extensive image archive of more than a thousand writers from many countries, and my work has been published on every continent. I am available for assignments and will travel. I am an official photographer for the Sewanee Writers Conference, and have been since its inception. Photographs of Ian McEwan, Stephen Hawking, Doris Lessing, William Gaddis, Donald Barthelme, Andrew Hudgins are among my photographs which have served as front cover art. Before turning to photography full-time in 1989, I wrote book reviews, author interviews, publisher profiles and photography articles and reviews for such publications as Publishers Weekly, The New York Times Book Review, The Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Sun-Times, The Chicago Tribune, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Cleveland Plain Dealer, The Villager, Saturday Review, Popular Photography and American Photographer, which also published my full-page-plus photograph of Andreas Feininger. I was the recipient of an NEH grant for journalists through which I participated in a month-long seminar with Henry Nash Smith at the University of California, Berkeley, received a 1984 Merit Award from the Art Directors Club (1984) for my text to the story "Volcano," in Popular Photography magazine, and won a Scholarship in Non-Fiction to the 1984 Bread Loaf Writers Conference. In addition to my literary portraits I have a large stock of cityscapes, especially of New York, and of photojournalistic imagery a.k.a. "street shooting." I have licensed my author photographs to publishers worldwide, and have an extensive archive dating back to the late 1980s of more than one thousand writers. I also exhibit my photographs and sell them as limited edition prints. |
