Biography

For more than 35 years, I have shared my photographic experiences and love of nature with thousands of individuals through classes, workshops, lectures, and tours in both the U.S. and abroad including Iceland, Newfoundland, the Falkland Islands, the Brazilian Pantanal, South Dakota Badlands, Bosque del Apache, Chincoteague NWR, Tangier Island, etc. Program sponsors have included zoos, nature centers, camera clubs, and conservation organizations such as National Wildlife Federation and the Assateague Island Alliance. I have written “How To” articles on nature photography for national publications such as Outdoor Photographer and Birding. My images have appeared in magazines, calendars, and books published by National Wildlife Federation, National Geographic, Natural History Society, and Sierra Club. Credits include a book entitled, “Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge, an Ecological Treasure.”

Thank you, Irene. I enjoyed this. I had to break it up and listen to it a little at the time, but I really got something out of it for sure. I go to Chincoteague NWR when I go back home to visit my family (I grew up in Pocomoke City, MD), and that is one of my favorite places to go to photograph wildlife. Each time is different. Never know what will pose in front of my lens.
