| ABOUT |
Hello, and thanks for visiting my website. Photography is my avocation, and I volunteer my time, skill, and knowledge to several community organizations —
for instance, Thunder In The Valley, the Friendly City PolkaFest, the AmeriServ Johnstown FolkFest, and the Roxbury Bandshell Preservation Alliance.
Though I take all types of photographs, I specialize in photos of musicians.

| BIO |
Bill Rogers achieved success as an electronic technician in his 20's, as a safety professional in his
30's, and as a risk management consultant in his 40's and 50's. He earned an undergraduate
degree from Pitt and an MBA degree from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, served as
president of several regional and national professional organizations, and was certified by
examination and experience as a Chartered Property-Casualty Underwriter (CPCU), an Associate
in Risk Management (ARM), and a Certified Safety Professional (CSP). He is co-holder of a
United States patent and the author of a profitable 1991 book on workers' compensation
insurance. Rogers was a leadership-level volunteer to the American Cancer Society and the
American Red Cross, and is a Vietnam-era U.S. Navy veteran.
Bill Rogers was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2002, and retired on disability in 2006. He
turned to digital photography as a way to fight the mental and physical symptoms of Parkinson's
by meeting new people and staying engaged with the world.
Now in his sixth decade of life, Bill has once again achieved success, this time as a photographer.

WARNING! BEWARE OF LOW-QUALITY LIGHTSTANDS! Recently, I purchased a lightstand at a bargain price, but after using it for just one nighttime
shoot, it seized up and could not be used. I tried to return it, but the seller refused; he told me it was a one-night stand. ;-)
