After nearly a decade as a journalist, I returned to academics - studying the History of Photography with Beaumont Newhall.

In Albuquerque from 1980-84, at the University of New Mexico, I also worked as a bio-medical photographer and as a movie projectionist.

"Let me show you my Sword " is a clash of a photojournalistic approach meeting experimental methods. At UNM I had access to expired papers and large-scale chromogenic print lines, producing a portfolio of magenta-shifted images from a Halloween party in 1981.
