Autorenporträt
Ever since I moved to Pennsylvania from Ohio some forty-four years ago, settling in the valley of the Laurel Mountains, I have come to appreciate nature to its fullness.Schooled in the Pittsburgh (PA) area, Paul J. Volkmann graduated from Oakmont High School in 1962. From there, he went on to Ashland College, Ashland, Ohio, where he completed his studies in 1967 achieving two degrees, one in sociology and the other in psychology. While attending his alma mater, he was hired by the Ashland Times Gazette to write about college news. This publisher gave birth to Volkmann's photojournalistic career. From there he went on to share his talents with four other newspapers, three police agencies, and one industry. In addition, he completed all the necessary requirements and received certification in law enforcement in the state of Ohio.In the early seventies, the entrepreneur opened up his own studio, Pee Vee's Photography in Latrobe. Expanding his business pursuits over a thirty-two-year span, the retail proprietor's business pursuits included custom framing and a fishing lure and tackle shop. In addition, he has written two newspaper columns for the Latrobe Bulletin for nearly two decades. Both of these, Inside the Outdoors and Off the Wall have delighted and inspired readers throughout the world.Being semi-retired, "Mr. Pee Vee" as he is known, has also authored three other books, "Off the Wall Favorites (2011)," Peeveetry, In Form of 'Verseity' (2016)," and "With Me Always (2017)."As a convert to the Roman Catholic Church, Volkmann is very passionate about his Christian faith, loves to make fishing-lure necklaces and promote the "City of Firsts" tourist community where he lives.
