A photographer since I received a Brownie box camera on a Christmas morning, I soon progressed to my brother's Ansco, my father's Voigtlander and, in college, Sister Josephine's Rolleiflex. The subject matter hasn't changed much since I was a child, just the quality of the finished product. Homes, barns, open meadows, trees...a quiet way of viewing the world that is both specific and universal. My photography is collected in places such as the Bibliotheque Nationale, the Brooklyn Museum and the Boston Public Library. A New York Times's reviewer wrote of my work: "A small-town cemetery, in Tottenville, Staten Island...might be in Eastern Long Island or even Iowa, and the bucolic charm of its setting is enhanced by soft-focus,light-flooded exposures and brownish prints that suggest a bygone era."
