I was originally an academic, teaching at first rate Japanese universities, then branching out into writing textbooks. As educational publishers are notoriously poor at graphics and photography, I submitted my own photographs to supplement each chapter in textbooks. My extensive travels throughout Japan gave me the opportunity to photograph anf write about many varied places, particularly Japanese gardens, which is my specialty.

World Heritage Japan covers all of the Japanese UNESCO sites, including the Intangible culturl assets of Japan such as Noh Theatre, Kabuki, Japanese cuisine etc.
