"I took my first photos with a box brownie in high school. I got serious about photography in college, where I almost survived an intensive photojournalism course for would-be photo board candidates for the Harvard Crimson. This non-credit course taught me the rudiments of darkroom work and lots of other aspects of photojournalism, but when the time needed to complete the weekly assignments approached forty hours, I reluctantly quit in order to spend a little time on my official studies. At Harvard I was also introduced to "fine art" photography through a friend and mountaineer, Chris Goetze, who helped me refine my seeing and my printing and who introduced me to the work of Ansel Adams, Minor White, and Edward Weston."
