Bob graduated from the University of Illinois in 1968, with a B.S. in Astronomy. He worked as a large system software designer and business planner with IBM and other companies until retiring in 1999. Retirement has finally given him ample time to devote to his passion for high-resolution lunar imaging where he uses an 8” reflector from his backyard observatory. A number of Bob’s images have been shown on the Lunar Photo of the Day (www.lpod.org).
