Nicolas A. Vernicos
Shipowner
President of the International Chamber of Commerce -Hellas

A gift in the 4th grade, when I succeeded in the admission exams of the Athens College, from my parents, was an Agfa box camera.

My father, Alexander, was filming us with a Bell & Howell 8mm camera.

From my classmates Alkis Xanthakis a photography teacher today, I learned the first basic steps of image and from George Skouras, nephew of the-then-president of 20th Century Fox, Spyros Skouras, I learned to record motion pictures.

My first part-time job came out as an assistant's assistant in films of my friend and producer Klearchos Konitsiotis
