Photographer

Women have always been a good influence on me.

When I'm photographing, I look for the personal style with which something is worn - sometimes even how an umbrella is carried or how a coat is held closed.

I'm a zero.

I took to New York life like a star shooting through the heavens.

Most of my pictures are never published. I just document things I think are important. For instance, I've documented the gay pride parade from its first days.

Everybody else does work - I have too much fun.

I had always been interested in fashion.

I made hats until I went into the Army. I was drafted during the Korean War.
