About the Author

Born and raised in the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (known as the Mon Valley) I learned to use a Kodak 110 instamatic camera and a journal as an eighteen year old U.S. Marine in Vietnam. I still believe in the "KISS" method for writing and taking pictures. Keep it simple and short. My only upgrade has been to a 35mm camera and a fountain pen.
