Born in Chicopee, Massachusetts in 1951, and after a childhood in Akron, Ohio, received a B.S. degree from the Rochester Institute of Technology and worked as a research physicist for 11 years.  In 1985 and 1986 platinum palladium printmaking and negative building was studied under the instruction of Sal Lopes, a master photographer and photographic printmaker.

First deliberate study of the interrelationship of culture and its environing space occurred with the photographing of the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument, Arizona in 1987.  Photographs were conceived to stimulate interest and awareness of the pre-historic inhabitants and their sense of place.  The exhibition was extended at the request of the National Park Service.

First folding screen was created in 1989.  The folding screen was used to aid in the interpretation of the photographed environment.  The axis of the folds are very carefully selected and critical to the interpretation delivered.  Viewing the panels in a variety of positions presents a more complete evaluation and understanding of the space photographed.

Folding axis work began in 1999 and throughout 2000 as a means to study the construct of nature.
