I have made animated films since the early 1970’s, including an Emmy award winning animation
created for a regional PBS television station.
A retrospective of my animated films was included in an annual Northwest Film Forum “Local Sightings” Film Festival.
High Hopes Media Center featured my documentary "Solar Steam— an Energy Alternative"as part of its environmental film festival.
My film and animations have been included in the catalogs of Serious Business Films (San Francisco),
the King County Library, High Hopes Media Center (Seattle) and the Washington State Arts Commission.
I organized animated film programs for Focal Point and 911 Media Centers in Seattle.
I lectured on European animation at the Seattle Art Museum’s “Photographers on Film” series.
I organized a local film society called “Second Saturday Cinema”. Experimental film and animation
from around the world was showcased each month, for eight years.
