David studied art at the Chicago Art Institute and the Chicago Academy of Arts.
He became an avid photographer and gifted engraver.
During the late 1930's he was employed as a commercial photographer.

the Fort Dearborn Camera Club, and was honored with many awards
in photographic competitions including the Canadian National
Exhibition, Sixth Annual & Third International Photographic
Salon, Baltimore International Salon of Photography, St.
Petersburg Salon of Pictorial photography, Detroit International
