Artist Biography

After 1960s college and military service, and graduate school and more military service (National Guard call-up), I moved to New York City and started a publishing career in children’s books (Scholastic Magazines and Random House). I left publishing to open (1981) a used bookstore in New Lebanon, NY. That business is now slowly being phased into my new North Adams store. The primary business is now at the Eclipse Mill Artist Studios, a live-in/commercial condominium complex at the historic Eclipse Mill in North Adams, Massachusetts.
