MICHAEL B. FRIEDMAN

I began taking pictures in 1982 when my daughter was born. I rapidly became addicted to photography and had many exhibits in the New York City area in both color and black and white. Much of my work was of children and of troubled people I encountered during my career as a social worker and public policy advocate. This work included homeless people as well as people with mental illness and families with seriously emotionally disturbed children.

In about 2007, I began using digital cameras, and my work expanded to include travel and street photography, and digitally created images such as “Jazz In Motion”, “Sun And Moon”, “Abstractions” and others.

Recent exhibits include “Into The Woods”, color photographs of foliage, at The Woodstock Art Exchange as well as landscapes I labeled “American Beauty” and more.

Most recently, I have devoted much of my work to images of jazz musicians, both straight photographs in black and white and colorful abstractions. Currently, I have 50 black and white images on exhibit at the Keystone Korner, a jazz club in Baltimore. My most recent collection of abstractions is called “The Bass As Art”.
My photographs and digital images can be purchased. Prices vary by size and use. I also donate my photographs to not-for-profit organizations. Musicians in my photographs are free to use images of themselves without charge. I appreciate photo credit.
