Photographing NYC for 25 years, six of them while driving a New York City taxi. Trying very hard to capture the city as life unfolds, meaning I never stage any of my photos! Also I am a close confidant of the immortal Dave Beckerman, (quintessential NYC photographer) and owner of the first photography blog in the known universe.

If you’re referring to Taxi Driver, I have yet to see it. Ever since I found out it includes classic captures of 1970s NYC, it’s been on my must-see list.
