When they send out press releases, no one from the media came so he started shooting and writing the stories himself. Even though he didn't start out as a photographer, he's become a fair hand with his Contax. I'll try to get his work down here in the Port of LA for the Harry Bridges Centennial Anniversary in the last week of July. Which reminds me, there is a call for harbor/maritime related work for the previously stated week long event. Anyone interested please contact me off list, as I'm curating the Harbor Art Walk.
