“He’s my favorite person on earth,” Alison Strieker said. “I still have his kidney to this day.” As his daughters were growing up, they were the center of his life and he captured many moments of their young lives on a movie camera and an old Kodak “Brownie” camera. His passion for photography sparked his pivot to journalism.
