Gary lives in Austin Texas with his lovely wife, Sue, and their twelve year old fox red Labrador Retriever - Sutter. He earned his master of arts degree in school administration from San Jose State University and his undergraduate degree from Chico State University, where he was inducted into the athletic hall of fame in 2018 for his swimming achievements. He retired from a rewarding 39 year career in California public schools, where he served as an elementary school principal and a high school English teacher. He continues to swim competitively with the Texas Longhorn Aquatic Masters.

I am very excited to share my black and white photographs of Big Bend National Park.
