  1. As a young photographer I was immediately influenced by the legendary work of Cartier-Bresson…realizing at first glance that I had much to learn about my craft. My time in Paris working for the Herald Tribune became a turning point and was a great affect on the documentary films I produced later on for ABC.

  2. Wonderful romantic times in good old Paris !

    “A small cafe, Mam’selle
    Our rendezvous, Mam’selle
    The violins were warm and sweet
    And so were you, Mam’selle
    And as the night danced by
    A kiss became a sigh
    Your lovely eyes seemed to sparkle
    Just like wine does
    No heart ever yearned the way mine does
    For You…”
