Since earning a BFA in drawing and painting from Carnegie Mellon University in 1983, I have continually painted and until 2010, worked full-time in television. I was graphics director for The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien in Los Angeles. Prior to that, I was a graphic designer for Saturday Night Live and Late Night with Conan O’Brien in New York City. I now live and paint full-time in the Hudson Valley.
