Richard Druckman, a West Windsor resident for 35 years, has traveled to every corner of the globe searching out the most exciting shots for Reuters, Sports Illustrated, Associated Press, USA Today, Parade Magazine, and Life Magazine. He has been photographing superstar athletes and some of the celebrity fans for more than 25 years.
Druckman’s annual Father’s Day Photo Fair at Gold Medal Impressions, 43 Princeton Hightstown Road, West Windsor, features an extensive collection of photos including the Giants, 76ers, Yankees, NJ Devils, Eagles, Jets, Mets, and Flyers. He’s always had a passion for sports and attended his ninth Olympics this past winter. Photographs are for sale in a variety of sizes and prices through June 17.
“I am living my dream,” says Druckman. “I get to see first-hand sports history in the making and capture it so that sports fans everywhere can relive the excitement of athletic achievement.”
A former senior executive of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Druckman, and his wife, Joan, raised their three sons in West Windsor.
A walk through Druckman’s ever-expanding gallery puts the sports connoisseur face-to-face with Terrell Owens’ first touchdown as an Eagle; the historic World Series play of the Boston Red Sox; the playoff performances of the Philadelphia 76ers; and countless Gold Medal performances from eight different Olympics.
“I am thrilled that fans will be able to visit my gallery, see for themselves the great moments in sports, and have the opportunity to own a piece of sports history,” says Druckman. “People say my photographs are magical because when something happens in a game I am there to capture it.”
