about
My dad was an artist. He was a brilliant photographer, a painter, an illustrator, and a filmmaker. He documented our family, the famous, and led his own advertising agency. He died when I was three, but his pictures and movies kept me close to him. I picked up a camera to document everyone and everything in my life as a way to keep memory close at hand. I love everything about photography, especially the part that tethers me to my dad.
My parents built a contemporary house in 1950 that held my dad’s darkroom. The owners of the house are also passionate photographers and kept and used my dad’s darkroom. My friend, the talented Elizabeth Glorioso, took this photograph of me in my father’s darkoom.
