Born in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne in 1955. I was introduced to photography by my Grandfather whose slapdash approach to darkroom technique I still practice. I spent some lost years in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Nepal in the mid-1970's then came home to grow-up. I did a Fine Art degree at Sheffield and a PGCE at Middlesex. I was involved in Education in one way or another for many years but also worked freelance for the BBC's picture publicity department.
