A Winner of awards ranging from the National Prime-time Emmy to the Peabody and DuPont-Columbia, I am well known for my cinematic eloquence, impressionistic historical re-creations and striking juxtaposition of photojournalism and visual metaphor. I have traveled the world capturing time and place in stills and motion. My striking photos are collected in books, and along with multi-media pieces, have also been exhibited in galleries. Recent work includes four projects for PBS’ series Frontline, ranging from the nuclear meltdown in Japan to free dental care in the Appalachians. I completed When Worlds Collide about the origins of Hispanic Culture, also for National PBS. Other favorite projects include Andrew Jackson: Good, Evil and the Presidency and the four-hour PBS series The New Heroes, shot on location in India, Brazil, Paraguay and Zambia, hosted by Robert Redford. My cinematography for the series was nominated for a National Emmy award. Other projects include the four-hour PBS series about the history of the Jews, The Kingdom of David, shot on location in Israel, Tunisia, Greece and Morocco, The Meth Epidemic for Frontline and the four-hour PBS history of aviation project Chasing the Sun, much of its dramatic aerial photography recreated in vintage aircraft. I served as Co-Director and Cinematographer for the three-hour Woodrow Wilson Presidential special, and The Duel, both for The American Experience, PBS' preeminent history series.
My impressive list of PBS credits also includes the eight-hour, award-winning series The Great War and the Shaping of the Twentieth Century, the four-hour series The Human Quest, Intimate Strangers, China: the Last Millennium, Visions of the Future, The Last Outcasts, The Artists Next Door, Songs of the City and The Works. My creative talents have been widely showcased on ABC, NBC, CBS and HBO. A National Press Photographer of the Year winner, my work has also been recognized with Primetime Emmys, both the DuPont Columbia Award and the Peabody for Excellence in Broadcast Journalism, two International Documentary Association Awards for Best Documentary Series, the Producers Guild of America Kodak Vision Award, the Ohio State Award, the Indian Film Festival Audience Choice award, Press Club honors from UP and API and multiple Los Angeles Emmys and Los Angeles Press Club Awards. I began my career as a Combat Cameraman and underwater photographer in the elite Combat Camera Group of the U.S. Navy. I am also a member of the Directors Guild of America.
