For those familiar with my work you know I made a film about my journey to forgive my mother called LOOK AT US NOW, MOTHER! I found forgiveness for her by doing the work, not because she ever acknowledged or apologized for her wrongdoing.
Once she turned 99 I've been making videos of her and posting them on Instagram and TikTok. Seems like she has a growing fan club. One video got a half million plays.
Yesterday I asked her to make video for Yom Kippur. It's Day of Atonement for the Jewish people. I was surprised by what she said. I never expected to hear this in my lifetime.

It was wonderful to be a guest on Roundtable and discuss the power of forgiveness and how it helps heal our pain. Having experienced this first hand, it is my mission to help as many others do the same.
On Feb 20th I’m giving a workshop. Link in the comments.
Fantastic to be a guest on TMS Roundtable and discuss how the power of forgiveness helps heal chronic pain and stress.
What is so important is how we communicate with each other.
Are you an active listener? Do you allow the other person to speak without your interrupting or thinking about what you want to say?
Or does your partner constantly interrupt you? Doesn't let you get a word in?
Nonviolent communication starts with one person. You can lead the way.
Join me on February 20th for a workshop on this and how it's an important component of forgiveness.

Live Virtual Photo Exhibition SUNSHINE STATE & PORTRAITS
On May 3rd last year, I was out on my bike heading home to the West Village when I noticed the White Horse Tavern. It’s one of the oldest bars in New York City and was a gathering place for writers where many drank heavily. Dylan Thomas was know to drink himself to death there in 1953. For me, who is not a big drinker, I spent many a nights there drinking a shandy and eating a delicious hamburger and fries. On this day, I was heartbroken to see the White Horse all boarded up.
I loved capturing the lines of the cross walks making a diamond shape in the foreground as we can see the White Horse in the background.
Join me tonight at 6pm EST for a virtual walkthrough of two new exhibits of mine: HIDDEN BEAUTY OF NYC & COVID-19.
You must register by 3:30 PM EST the latest. Only a few spots left.

On March 20th, Governor Andrew Cuomo ordered all non-essential retailers and businesses to close, and for residents across the state to stay home as much as possible in an effort to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus. The order was in effect through April 29th. As we all know that order continued for much longer.
I met up with my cousin, it’s the last time I saw him, and we took a walk by the Hudson River at the end of the day. This was before masks were even suggested never mind required. I couldn’t find any masks online or anywhere and ended up buying on Amazon a package purple bandannas. I gifted my cousin one. That was what I wore for quite a while which became a conversation piece as I looked like I was about to hold up a bank.
This photo was shot on my last walk with my cousin on one of the piers off the Hudson River in the West Village. I loved the geometric shapes created by angles of the fence with the two people walking as the sun setting.

The other day I received a beautiful email from someone who watched LOOK AT US NOW, MOTHER! on Tubi TV. I had never heard of Tubi so I wrote my distributor.
Was excited to see he had put it on that platform and several others some of which I wasn't aware of.
By the way, the person who wrote me is Roger Mobley. Anyone remember him? He was in over 100 TV episodes and 10 feature films between '59-'68. Was one of the busiest child actors at that time. He shared about his unhappy childhood and how he had no idea his parents were spending his money as fast as he earned it. Sad.

My first forms of creative expression were drawing and writing when I was quite young. As a teenager I discovered photography and soon found myself at 17 years old 200 miles away from home studying art. I spent hours creating prints in the darkroom. Sometimes under exposing them so I could paint with Marshall oils on the faint image. What resulted were pictures that looked like impressionist paintings. I stopped taking photos, playing in the dark room many years ago as I was driven to tell stories through film. It mixed all I love - visual, movement, words, sound and music. And now as I have been in between films, writing and speaking and coaching, my phone, my Iphone which is always with brought me back to my early passion - photography.
I have been exhibiting in group shows the last couple of years in Europe and NY and now have a solo photo show in NY.
For Immediate Release:...
Stop by to see my solo photo exhibit!

I had spent my career behind the camera making TV. When I emerged as an indie filmmaker after seeing the response to a film I made with my dog, I realized I was at home in front of the camera. I decided it was time to put my personal stories and trauma out to the world. What resulted was LOOK AT US....
