DICK ROBERTS
Dick says his background is "pretty simple," as follows: "In my twenties I was a film animator in Paris…I met Cartier Bresson who saw my photo work and encouraged me to continue in that direction. Back in the states I was a live action filmmaker. Worked on lots of documentaries. Shot a lot of stills. Recently started painting (water colors) and experimenting with digital cameras. Most recent expo was at Arcadia Coffee Co. in Old Greenwich with large (30 x 40) photos taken from the front of a speeding train called ‘Fast Tracks.’ "
