AUTHOR
After university I became a commercial photographer specializing in fashion and architecture. Since those days I taught , art photography, photo journalism and history of photography at the University of Victoria for many years.

Current work includes street photography in Europe, the image as metaphor and the nude, both in the studio and the landscape. I work out of a beautiful studio in Victoria's historic Chinatown and work with a Nikon D800e and Photoshop CS6.

I lecture and write about the history of photography, especially the nude and the portrait and won the Photographic Society of America's award for critical writing. I've curated or juried more than fifty exhibitions of photography, served on the board of the BC Civil Liberties Association and the Society for Photographic Education. For biographic info see my listings in Who's Who in American Art and the Macmillan Encyclopedia of Photographic Artists and Innovators.
