Steve is publishing a coffee table book through Quiet Light Publishing called
Quarter Tone: Portraits and Thoughts of 100 Singers, Songwriters and Musicians.
The idea for the book stems from eighteen years of video taping, lighting
and mixing sound for NBC Network News.


The book, comprised of 100 artists, explores what
inspires these troubadours to write and perform their craft.

As a professional cameraman, Steve has worked on thousands of television interviews
and been a part of hundreds of news stories including Presidential campaigns.
But he especially enjoys covering ordinary people
doing what they love, yet impacting others in small but extraordinary ways.

Steve's love for music and photography has inspired him to create a book
which captures some of our nation's most talented
musicians talking about what they do best.
He hopes the thoughts and photographs of these artists
captured in book form, will be viewed time and time again.


Quarter Tone has a scheduled printing date of November 2009

All profits made from this book are being donated
to Diabetes and Cancer research.
