Mickey is a retired Navy Photographers Mate, Chief Petty Officer, and was the Leading Chief of the Navy's elite Combat Camera Group Pacific. He served for 24 years on Active Duty. Mickey's current Project is the Veterans Portrait Series, documenting Veteran service stories focused on our Greatest Generation, The Veterans of World War II. Mickey interviews each Veteran, collecting and writing their stories to remember these amazing historic figures for generations to come. Mickey has collected and displayed images and stories from over 100 warriors who, at one point, signed the dotted line when our country needed their sacrifice of service most.
