Over the years I’ve had the chance to interview and photograph amazing individuals, including writers and authors, award-winning authors, too. As photographers, as visual storytellers ourselves, we can learn a lot from them about painting with words and the art of storytelling itself.
Here are a few examples of author interviews as well as book reviews.
Hope you enjoy the read and, as always, thank you for stopping by!
A Joe of All Trades in Publishing – interview with author Joseph Pittman published in Out IN Jersey Magazine
Make a Difference: A&U July 2019 cover story and photo shoot with activist and author Victoria Noe

Last Winter’s Snow, by Hans M. Hirschi – Book Review published in A&U Magazine–America’s AIDS Magazine
NOTE: I met author Hans M. Hirschi by pure chance. I had gotten in touch with him to request a review copy of one of his books, The Fallen Angels of Karnataka, to review for A&U Magazine. Then the author happened to be in town and I got to meet him in person when attending a book event at The Center in New York City. And I’ve been a fan ever since! If you’re looking for an amazing, awe-inspiring read, check out some of his books. Also, check out his YouTube channel to listen to the author, himself, as he reads excerpts from his books, and, thus, provide a much-needed escape from this never-ending COVID (quasi) lockdown.
