Peary Stafford grew up in Binghamton, New York in a family of devoted nature lovers. As a child he became interested in birds and it wasn't too long before that growing passion included wildlife photography.
Thirty years as an investment banker in New York did little to stymie this enthusiasm as he travelled around the world watching and photographing birds. Six years ago he began to spend most of his time at his home in Warren and his love of winged animals grew to include butterflies and moths.
He now splits his time between Warren and New York with his wife B. K. who also enjoys photography and contributed two of the photos to the exhibit.
