About the Creator
Jim Peterson grew up in northwestern New Mexico, and now lives in Sedona, Arizona. He earned two degrees (a BA in Music and a PhD in Biochemistry) from the University of Chicago, but after postdoctoral work left the academic world for a long and varied career in telecommunications and computer software. He worked at Bell Labs in Illinois and then at GTE Communication Systems in Phoenix for over two decades, and held positions ranging from highly technical assignments to planning and management roles. Upon retirement from that career, he redirected his energies to his lifelong artistic passion by starting a professional photography business. In addition, over the years he has given back to the community by serving on the boards of seven different non-profits. His fine art photography has been featured in galleries and exhibits in Phoenix and Sedona, and has been purchased by collectors worldwide.
