I worked for 32 years at the Art Institute of Chicago as Director of Photography. I designed and managed the studios through the transformation from film to digital beginning in 1990. During this period I collaborated with other major museums to establish ImageMuse, a network to foster the development of best practices in cultural heritage imaging. While at the museum I participated  in two major studies at the Rochester Institute of Technology’s Munsell Color Science Lab investigating the science of color reproduction.  I have designed and implemented large digitization projects of film archives and collections worked closely with conservators using computational and multi-spectral imaging for the study and documentation of works of art including photogrammetry and Reflectance Transformation Imaging  (RTI).
