Born in Wheeling, West Virginia, Mike Harris has spent most of his life in Greenwich, Connecticut, where he practiced law for fifty years. Since 2007, he has actively pursued his passion for photography. Mike's goal is to share his vision of different cultures through photography. He strives to bring to the photograph the essence of the people he meets and the places where they live. Mike had his first solo exhibit of his work at the Cos Cob Library in 2014, and his photographs have been selected for juried shows at the Greenwich Library, the Bendheim Gallery in Greenwich, the Carriage Barn Arts Center in New Canaan and the Greenwich and Stamford Connecticut Art Societies. Greenwich Magazine has featured Mike's photographs in several of its monthly issues, and a number of his works are held in private collections including the Snite Museum at the University of Notre Dame. Mike is married to Sally Harris, who shares his love of photography. Together, Mike and Sally regularly present photo essays to interested groups. The two have had exhibitions of their photographs at the Greenwich Botanical Center Gallery, the Cos Cob Library and the Greenwich YWCA. In April 2019, the Greenwich Arts Council presented an acclaimed retrospective which included over seventy of Mike and Sally's photographs. In April 2020 Greenwich Magazine published a feature article about Mike and Sally, their travels and the photography they have produced. See less
