I was a photojournalist for over 40 years, 3 decades at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and 9 years at Missouri Lawyers Weekly. I freelanced for 6 years after leaving these publications.
My work has appeared in Life, Time, Newsweek, and has won many awards, including the international competition, Pictures of the Year, with a first place in general news for a photograph on homelessness.
