“I am a high school English teacher, but have also taught French and. Photography. My passion for many years, besides photography and music, has been baseball. I coached at the same high school for 35 years and have had 4 players play in the Major Leagues. I also coached for 10 summers in the Alaska League, a college-level league, 5 summers in Anchorage and 5 in Honolulu, Hawaii. My photographic interests these days revolve primarily around travel. My wife and I go somewhere e every summer, our favorite destinations being Cuba, Italy, Croatia, Morocco, France and Southeast Asia, and numerous other destinations. I am currently in the laborious process of scanning most of my thousands of rock n roll slides and negatives. Feel free to email me if you have questions about artists you may want to see photographs of.
