Firstly I am a traveler. I am always traveling either physically or in my mind. I am a very visual person. I am the son of two Artists. My mother was a painter and my father is a sculptor. I had my fifth birthday in Haiti. Then a few years later spent a summer traveling with my parents through South America. Brazil, Peru, Columbia, Bolivia, Ecuador, then Panama. South America is a truly wonderful place! It made quite an impression on the way I think about the world. When I was 18 my father and I and an old friend of the family went to India as well as Abudabi, Dubai, Muscat and England. The list goes on and on from there. The total number of countries is now in the fifties. Along with this travel has always been photography. They just go hand in hand without even thinking about it.Now in the last 5 years or so I have been trying to have a film made about what it is that I do for a living. No film has ever been made about this subject. And yes I would know if there was one out there. I have talked with many film makers and even started filming but all have flaked out on me. Alas no film yet. A few people have told me that I should just make the film myself. This is not a bad idea other than the fact that I have no idea how to do such a thing. So if you have any Ideas on that then please let me know.
