He has been taking photos since he was an illustration and graphic arts major at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, he took a photography class to fulfill a credit\u00a0requirement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPhotography and the magic of the darkroom gave me a medium to express what only I felt,\u201d he said. \u201cI never drew again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His first earnings went to purchasing a Leica M2 with a 32mm lens, which he used almost exclusively until 2008 when his friend Annie Leibovitz gave him two new digital Leicas. Now, in addition to the Leicas, he shoots with his iPhone X.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u201cSometimes, when I shoot a photograph I can feel it will be great,\u201d Ziff said. \u201dThis doesn\u2019t happen especially often, but it happens often enough for me to recognize the buzz I feel instantly traveling from my eye to my brain to my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After living abroad for a number of years, he returned to the states and worked as a successful editorial art director for \u201cRolling Stone,\u201d \u201cHouse &amp; Garden,\u201d and several other publications.

The excitement of essentially beginning a new career has been exhilarating. Now after over 50 years, I see the sensibility that links all my best photographs, my sensibility, is the basic joy of being alive, and has been the prevailing theme of my work since I learned how to see.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Northern Essex offers an associate degree in general studies: Art and Design.
