A lifelong Brooklyn resident, leather sculptor and avid photographer, I have studied at Toscana Photographic Workshops in Italy and at the International Center of Photography in New York City, Santa Fe Photographic Workshops and Maine Media Workshops. My photos are included in Best of Photography 2013 and were published in Photo District News as first-place winner in the “People” category. In 2017, I was proud to be accepted as an artist-member of the Salmagundi Club, one of the oldest artists’ clubs in the United States, which has included illustrious artists such as Louis Comfort Tiffany and Paul Cadmus,. I received its Philip Isenberg Memorial Award in December 2017 as well as a Certificate of Merit in the August members’ show.
