Photography has long held a fascination for Herman Krieger. He worked as a photo lab technician during his teens in Detroit in the 1940's and served as an instructor in the Army Air Corps photo school. Earning a degree in mathematics from the University of California in Berkeley, he spent 30 years as a computer programmer in Europe. Upon retirement, he and his wife moved to Eugene, Oregon, where he promptly enrolled in the University of Oregon earning a bachelor's degree in fine arts. Herman Krieger is a member of the PhotoZone Gallery. A book of his photo essay, "Churches ad hoc", has been published.
