I wasn’t born with a camera around my neck, or a cemetery in my backyard. Ten years ago, I was neither a photographer nor taphophile (a passion for, and enjoyment of, cemeteries). My art evolved as a result of the search for my family roots. It was genealogy that brought me to the cemetery. Before the serendipitous discovery of peace & sublime tranquility, my career time was ceremoniously spent in the music business as a musician, manager, and recording engineer in New York City. Nearly 30 years of headbanging assaults on my nerves was bled before retiring in the mid-90’s. From there, it was not too long after that creative inspiration struck a second time. This time, I hoped for greater amity with my spirit. So far, so good….
