For years I've wanted to share my pictures of Lee with his children who did not have the pleasure of knowing him during his prime. All of these pictures were taken in 1977 and 1978 during our field work for AMOCO on the Alaska Peninsula and Kodiak Islands. Lee shared with me countless stories of his life in the Soviet Union before immigrating to America as a political refugee in 1976. Lee died in 1990 from leukemia and was the last of his Russian geologic field party to die of this horrible disease. Apparently the entire party was exposed to radiation in their field area in the Ural Mountains. These photos are in 2 volumes:
