Larry E Santucci
Born 1940
A native of Philadelphia, PA, he and wife Linda came to live in North Central Florida almost 15 years ago. They have been, for most of their adult lives, involved in the design, manufacturing and marketing in the furniture and picture framing industries.
His photograph of the Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings (The Yearling Pulitzer Prize 1939) typewriter and writing table appeared in Real Florida Magazine and the Gainesvile Sun used his image of Bivens Arm Wildlife Sanctuary to publicize the ARTReach Program. His edgy photograph of a 1964 Packard appeared in The Scene Magazine.
