For 35 years in Los Angeles, he helped create animated educational films on science and medicine.In 1990, he returned to Tybee, where he still resides and made it his base for the study of ecosystems up and down the coast.Inspired by the writings of Henry David Thoreau, he has kept his own journals which comprise his book, “The Low Country: A Naturalist’s Field Guide to Coastal Georgia, the Carolinas, and North Florida.”
