Jim Rogers Portrait

A while back it was my honor to paint a portrait of Mr. Jim Rogers while he was president and CEO Duke Energy the largest electrical utility in the U.S.

Under Rogers leadership Duke Energy was recognized as a leader in sustainability, his book “Lighting the World” explores the issues involved in bringing electricity to over 1.2 billion people on earth who lacked it, the book asserts that access to electricity should be recognized as a basic human right.

In 2011, along with Joe Hale, Rogers founded the “Global Bright Light Foundation”, a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing economically sustainable home solar lighting systems to people around the world who do not have electricity.
