This is a detail from a collage
done by a student.
I'm saying, "Where's my Coke?"
Years ago, in a class, I saw Le Banquet, by the French photographer, Bernard Faucon.
My brain went kaboom.

I had never seen photography like that before.
While I didn't pursue constructed photography, myself, seeing it opened the possibilities of photography to me.
I'm a photography teacher in NYC and Hudson, NY.
My teaching is far more important to me than my own photography.
I love photography; my passion is teaching photography.
I enjoy creating an environment in which students learn, gain more confidence and direction, and have fun.
I enjoy being a flâneur with a camera, whether I'm on the street (Man in the Crowd) or hiking up Vroman's Nose (My Side of the Mountain).
Observing with a camera in hand is more photography for me than is a print on the wall.
A common theme is personality, whether from people, or things, like bikes and chairs.

I teach at the International Center of Photography, the 92nd St. Y, and at the Columbia-Greene Community College.
