Born in Buffalo, New York, I am a summa cum laude graduate of SUNY Buffalo, NY. I moved to Ithaca, NY in 1976 where I pursued a PhD in Comparative Literature, was a freelance actor in television and radio commercials, News Director of a radio station, and received an MA in History from Cornell University in 1986. I studied with Stan Taft, Bill Benson, and the late Bente King and Thomas Buechner. I was an active member of the State of the Art Gallery in Ithaca for 15 years, and am a current member of the Ithaca Art Trail, the Buffalo Society of Artists, and Western New York Artists Group. Represented by Elizabeth Sadoff Art Consultants NYC and Velvenoir.com for European sales. Online at www.Saatchi.com and www.Redbubble.com.
