My photography professor Dick Fleming started me down this path. For more than 30 years, I have photographed sunrises and sunsets around the world and been an eyewitness to what most have only seen on front pages and in magazines through my lens. As a news photographer, I have photographed every United States President from Richard Nixon to Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush 41, Clinton, and Bush 43 to President Barack Obama’s historic victory. My journey has allowed me to photograph summits of world leaders, Presidential inaugurations, shuttle launches, Super Bowls, Summer & Winter Olympics, Cal Ripken’s record-breaking game, NBA playoffs, political races, pivotal marches on Washington, and almost all the Republican and Democratic National Conventions since 1980.
I have traveled to over forty countries worldwide and covered international events including the turmoil in the Middle East and the sadness of war. My images of the 1981 attack on President Ronald Reagan earned me the Pulitzer Prize for spot news photography. My work has appeared in Life, Time, Newsweek, Paris Match, NY Times, Sports Illustrated, Rolling Stone, People, National Geographic, US News, Washington Post, LA Times, and Wall Street Journal.
