Mike takes us on a photographic journey around the world from the frontlines, the sidelines, the VIP sections and inside the ropes…..a Forest Gump experience, witnessing history, rubbing elbows with the most famous names and datelines in the world.  His new book, Nikon Road takes us on a photographic journey around the world from 1971-2021. Magical places visited include the Forbidden City, Tibet and the Yangtze River.  China was negotiating the future of British Hong Kong.  Indira Ghandi was assassinated in Delhi,  Vietnam celebrated the 10th anniversary of the fall of Saigon.  President Reagan, the Love Boat and Mickey Mouse came calling to China.  Mike experienced and photographed the Moscow Olympics, Pope John Paul II and the Charles and Diana’s wedding in London, and their honeymoon in Egypt.

On January 6th, 2021, Mike was at our country’s capitol –  “All my professionalism from 50 years of photography kind of takes over. I started shooting, knowing deep down that you can’t make a bad picture in a situation like that. There were maybe 20 of the rioters in the hallway and only a handful of police trying to restrain them. That’s when I saw that the guy with a Confederate flag had kind of moved off by himself. I’m thinking in the context of — we’re in this hallowed hallway, with the gilded framed paintings on the wall, the bust, the kind of thing that speaks to anyone who has ever been to the Capitol, and I kind of isolated him with that in the background.”
