Photographer: Michael Lewis started taking photographs more than forty years ago when he was stationed in the United Kingdom as an orthopedic surgeon in the United States Air Force. At that time he was able to travel throughout Europe, as well as East Africa, Nepal and India. Since then his passion for photography has grown exponentially. Michael is honored that his images have been published in a number of books and magazines, including the Field Museum of Natural History Bulletin and Nature Photographer. During a one man show of his in a Chicago-area gallery, people reported that his work struck a deep chord in them, which led to the publication of One World: A View of Seven Continents. His photographs have since been shown in several galleries and exhibitions, including Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts; the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco, California; the Chicago Cultural Center in Chicago, Illinois; and Children’s Hospital of Harvard University in Boston, Massachusetts. Connecting the Two Worlds: Both medicine and photography are about intimacy. As a physician, Dr. Lewis feels that it is a great honor to share intimate experiences in his patients’ lives. As a photographer, he feels that it is a privilege to be part of intimate moments in his subjects’ lives.
