This is my revized site, containing samples of my photography, writing, magazine articles and the chapters for the books I’m writing.  Unlike a blog, this website is more like a magazine, containing a range of writings and images, with links to other sites and pages that contain my creative work.

Re-inventing One’s Self

Every few years, the number seven comes to mind, one is faced with an opportunity to re-make one’s career, relationships and life. Some of this is forced on us through circumstance, at other times by our own bilological state. I’m long over-due for a change. I founded, built, then ran The Maine Photographic Workshops for 34 years (1973 to 2007), and was president of Rockport College for ten of those years. Enough. 

Since turing over The Workshops to a nonprofit, something I’d been contemplating for ten years, I’ve been researching options for my next creative career. Finding employment at my age is nearly impossible, so what ever I do will have to be self-generated from my lectures, collections of writings and from my experiences. This is what I’d rather be doing anyway,  but I still want to be involved with institutions that can help others through their mid- and late-life crisis. To this end, I’m consulting with existing institutions that need a guiding hand in seeing what the future can hold for them, and how to proceed through the paperwork to reach that end.
