One of Pirouette’s fondest memories was from the nursery room. It was there that her mother, the Princess Devant would hold her close. In a quiet voice, she would hum a tune. While she couldn’t remember the words, the melody remained close to her heart. In later years, when Princess Pirouette had children of her own to rock to sleep, she would employ the same song.
I was born at the American Hospital in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France. I find inspiration in the lives of so many people from Joan of Arc to Oscar Wilde. While my primary avocation is photography, I also enjoy philosophy, theology and most of all, history. My beloved wife, Robin Anne Smith, who passed away in 2013 is an inspiration to me. My beloved partner, Dana is also a great support and inspiration to me. I'd be remiss if I did not mention my cats: Maxwell, Nigel, Pirouette and GarGar.
