About Me
I've been a long time Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers fan since the beginning. Growing up in Los Angeles, I listened to 94.7 KMET and 95.5 KLOS where TPHB were played regularly. I was hooked on radio and befriended a DJ at KROQ, Al Rameriez, who eventually was at KLOS and I'd hang out at the studios when he was on the air. I moved to Seattle in 1989 and in 91' I too was behind the mic at 90.7 KSER with my own radio show. I stepped away from my radio gig in 2009 and picked up my camera again in 2010 and since then I've been covering concerts and festivals throughout the West. I was fortunate to have been able to photograph Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers several times, at the Gorge and the Forum and lastly at the Arroyo Seco Weekend.
