Photo essays were my first passion in the 70s. In the 80s, I was Canada's most prolific pre-web online graphic artist. In the 90s, I became an independent (print) publisher. I am also the founder or co-founder of numerous art organizations/projects including Starside Softworks, Telidon at Trinity Square Video, Toronto Community Videotex, Videopage, Wm. Perry: Digital Text Services, Meaford Business News, The Colour Workshop, Meaford Dollars, Comedia, The Copy Chai and The Friday Cafe. I have published several books, including the best-selling “Be Nice In 60 Languages” and the better selling “Be Rude In 60 Languages”.
