I worked there for the summer session and was able to sit in on his class and makes some prints. Most of the instructors were very talented, helpful, and pleasant people, but he and George Tice were the stand outs for me.
I remember him as having a successful corporate background already at that time. I admired his pictures, and his ability to successfully market his portfolios at worthwhile prices. I recall he had some things to say about working with 8x10, but I'll be darned if I can recall any of it now. Large format was a whole new world to me then, so everything he and Tice had to say was a revelation for me.
