I am a photographer and writer and the author of many photography books and I'm lucky enough to have more than a million books in print. Probably the best known of the books I've written are the Joy of Photography and the Joy of Digital Photography. There is little that I love more than to travel and take pictures and I love to teach photography through my books. My father was a photographer and so I grew up in a house filled with cameras and books filled with great photography--it probably would have been difficult to not become a photographer. I credit my grammar school teachers with teaching me how to write a clear sentence and my high school typing teacher with giving me one of the greatest skills a writer can have: fast fingers. I live in Connecticut and, in winter, often work in a basement laboratory trying to find a solution to Global Colding.
