I'm a fan of old films. My favorites include movies starring William Powell. "The Thin Man,""My Man Godfrey" and "Mister Roberts" are my favorite Powell films. I also enjoy Cary Grant, Catherine Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart and the dancing films with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.

I'm a photographer and I take my camera with me whenever I go out. I also love to see the work of other photographers. My favorites are Max Yavno, Margaret Bourke-White, Gordon Parks and Walker Evans.

I love to read mysteries. T. Jefferson Parker, Robert Crais and Michael Connelly are my favorite authors. I also like the classic mysteries of Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett and Ross MacDonald.

I paint using watercolors. I'm not very good, but I've just started. Rome wasn't built in a day, so I'll keep practicing. I also love to go to art exhibits and to local museums to see art.

I enjoy learning about new topics by reading articles on the Internet. I look forward to reading the articles here at List My Five.
