I was born into a family of musicians.
Dad was a timpanist and jazz drummer,
and Mom a classic violinist and pianists.
By my early teens I was seriously writing
my own music on piano. Straight out of
high school I started performing in clubs
and had several successful bands.
Priscilla Hairriett band phase one,
Performed all my original material. We appeared
on the A.M. Philadelphia Show in the late 70's.
Priscilla Hairriett Band phase two, was a
heavy rock group consisting of
Tommy Keifer, guitar, Eric Brittingham, bass,
and Michael Kelly Smith, guitar.
they later formed their own groups,Cinderella,
and Britny Fox. In 1982 I joined forces with
guitarist Richard Brooks in Deepfreeze, a
hard driving rock act, that opened for
Twisted Sister, Motorhead, and others touring bands

I started professionally photographing
and video taping touring rock bands,
and doing freelance photography
for artists and have photos appearing in a
variety of rock magazines. All along this
music journey I supported myself by
