| ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER |
I am an attorney and CPA living in Springfield, MO. I graduated from Harvard Law School, and attended Harvard Divinity School. My specialization is legal and tax issues for religious organizations, and I have written over 50 books and publish 2 newsletters in this field. You can see my various publications on my other website, Churchlawtoday.com. I became hooked on astronomy after taking a single look at Saturn through my brother's 4 inch reflector when I was in high school. My first telescope was a Celestron 8" SCT. Over the years I have purchased several other telescopes, and built a 6" reflector (including polishing the mirror). I am married and have three children, only one of whom is still at home. My other hobby is sailing aboard our Island Packet 350 sailboat, the "5 Hammars," on beautiful Lake Stockton in southwest Missouri. |
