A Movie about Acquiring The Jeffers Collection...
People often ask how I came to acquire The Jeffers Studio Collection of Olympia, Washington. The best way to explain this chapter of my journey as a Shadow Catcher is through a video created by students at Evergreen State College (my alma mater) in 1986. Run Time about 28 minutes.
And, while the Jeffers archive undeniably transformed my career path, this acquisition was not the beginning of my career in photography as this medium has always been a part of my life. My father was a passionate amateur photographer, and I took my first pictures as a child in grade school and when photographed Janis Joplin in Seattle in 1967 ~ I was hooked!
