In 1986 this work became the book Men’s Lives: The Surfmen and Baymen of South Fork,” for which he contributed photos and collaborated with author Peter Matthiessen on the text. After leaving college he worked on a photography project that he had started in the late 70’s documenting the dwindling numbers of commercial fishermen in the area. Just before graduating from high school, he took up photography and was accepted into the photography program at The Rhode Island School of Design solely on the merits of his portfolio, as he had no art background in high school. Doug Kuntz came to East Hampton as a young boy in 1963, and within a couple of years found himself working with the commercial fisherman in Amagansett.
