about me
The child of American missionaries, I grew up in Cameroon and India and wanted to be an archaeologist. Instead over the years I've been a screenwriter, a film editor (Fallout, 1995), a drama teacher, and a film and photography teacher.
Through all those years and careers I've also been a singer specializing in folk music from the Republic of Georgia. (You can learn more here about my group, Trio Kavkasia.) As a result I’ve lived and traveled in Georgia off and on for over thirty years; lots of my images from Georgia are of folk singers, whether professionals from Tbilisi or villagers from all over the country.
Nowadays I do fine-art photography (landscapes and portraits), write fiction and travel memoir, and translate old French popular novels. I live in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

In May 2022 I took part in a three-week artist residency at Woodstock School in Mussoorie, India, as one of seven alumni visual artists from around the world. My project was to extend the series of portraits I began in 2018 (see my gallery of Himalayan Hill People). But—drawing on my experience as a film editor—I also created a short video of images and soundscapes, "In the Bazaar." My work for the final group show was a hybrid of conventional prints mounted on metal panels and that 6-minute video playing in a loop on a nearby wall monitor.
