Thrive! Healthy People – Healthy Planet: Photography and Soundscape Exhibition

My childhood in the woods of East Texas imbued me with a lifelong love of nature and the great outdoors. I received a degree in Zoology from the University of Texas, Austin, and a Ph.D. in Microbiology from the University of Chicago. After postdoctoral studies in France, I became an Assistant Professor of Bacteriology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1974. In 2008, I retired and am now Professor Emeritus. I began photographing nature subjects in 1969 but only after retirement did I become serious about photography. Today, I photograph, and do any post-processing, print, and frame photos for exhibition at public venues such as my recent show in the Steinhauer Gallery at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum.
