BEHIND THE LENS
I was born and raised in New York City and attended the High School of Music and Art. At the University of Michigan I studied Chemistry and Biochemistry following which I continued my graduate work for a Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry at Columbia University. After postdoctoral research at Harvard and teaching at Wayne State in Detroit I joined the faculty of the Chemistry Department at Emory University in Atlanta.
My principal photographic medium has always been black and white, but with the advent of digital photography I have increasingly turned to color as well. My work has been shown in Atlanta at the Shatten Gallery of Emory University, the Alliance Française, at the galleries of the Unitarian-Universalist Church and the Atlanta Photography Group, and now in conjuncture with the other members of the A2D photographers group.
As an “early adopter” I have been using Photoshop since version 2 and have taught Photoshop in Provence at the Craig Stevens Workshop and in Atlanta at Emory’s Center for Life Long Learning as well as doing individual tutoring.
