Travel has been an important part of my life since post-college days when I moved to Italy. It became a full-time career a few years ago when I began to photograph and write guidebooks about the places I traveled most often and knew best.
I have authored and co-authored books about Italy, Portugal, Scandinavia, New England, Eastern Canada, and the Chesapeake Bay area. To me, travel is all about experiences, so it’s not surprising that several of these books are adventure guides featuring my own favorite sports of skiing, kayaking, mountain climbing and hiking. But I also look for other experiences, especially cultural and historical ones. I enjoy music, opera, architecture, art and places with an interesting story in their past, and I enjoy photographing and writing about all these subjects.
My photographs illustrate most of my books, and this allows me to look at places in different ways – through the camera lens and with a writer’s eye.
