"Trying to do my part in this world"

about me

Born and raised in the Bronx, NY and currently living in Connecticut

B.A. in Liberal Studies Purchase College, Purchase NY

I'm a die hard Yankee, Ranger, Texas Longhorn, Giant and Knicks fan.  Enjoy visiting stadiums and arenas of the four major sports and almost at 80!

Have been collecting autographs for over 30 years and some of my favorite have been from Derek Jeter, Don Mattingly, Bo Jackson, Ricky Williams, Karl Malone and many more.

Enjoy Crossfit and weightlifting

Recently published my first book, Through the Lens of Anxiety. It chronicles the ups and downs of my 30 year journey dealing with anxiety.  I detail some of the hardest moments in my life and how receiving my first camera in 1999 helped me cope with my struggle even to this day. 

Using photography gave me a reason to explore new places and at the same time to look through the lens of my camera, and focus on what is in front of me.

Over 70 photographs!! (A few that will be available to purchase!)

Scavenger Hunt - 100 items/scenarios to give people the inspiration to get out and photograph what's in front of you.  Tag your photos #lensofanxiety so we can all follow along. The book is available on www.NickCicognaArt.com
