Tenor and Soprano

Husband and wife, tenor and soprano. When young both won scholarships to study with famous opera singers. Gloria sang with Mirella Freni in a legendary recording. Husband and wife migrated to Australia and have lived a life of unemployment. Gloria has published two small book of poetry. I am interested in documenting how talent sometimes becomes, in a cruel twist,, the source of constant frustration, pain, and of an unending feeling of failure.

Born in Rome, Italy. Studied in the U.S.A. and lives in Australia. A graduate in Photography from The University of Texas at Austin. I am committed to photographing the less empowered as dignified individuals and beautiful human beings. I try to emphasize the subjects' personal reality.
