He’s also worked with David Bowie, Bon Jovi, Bob Dylan, AC/DC, Marcus Miller, and the Grateful Dead, and has long collaborated with Sheila E., The Family/deluxe, Victor Wooten, and Stanley Clarke, among others, both as a photographer and a designer of numerous album covers and promotional materials and merchandise.

He’s also collaborated on various photographic novels and children’s books, including me, Paparazzi, and In the Shadow of Edgar Allan Poe for DC/Vertigo Comics and Catie  and Josephine for Houghton Mifflin. He’s also done retouch and composite work for DVD packaging including “The Comeback,” “The Sopranos,” “Six Feet Under,” “Rome,” and “30 Rock.” Speaking of television… he also once played a dead drug dealer on Homicide: Life on the Street.
