John Rossi, a retired school teacher from the New York City school system, has a deep passion for capturing moments through his lens. Although he currently lives on Staten Island, his heart remains in his native Brooklyn. Larry Racioppio, a fellow photographer, friend of John’s and contributor to Street Photography Magazine, introduced me to John’s timeless photographs of Little Italy.
And after seeing his photographs, I understood why and immediately invited him to share his personal story with you on the podcast. Street Photography Magazine subscribers can see his work in his article Memories of Little Italy schedule to publish on October, 18. John’s journey in photography began when he got his hands on an old camera with his girlfriend.
