David Mussina (photography) earned a BA from Ohio Wesleyan University ('70) and a MA in Sociology from Boston College ('72).

His present work is an eight-year still ongoing exploration of the Mystic River, which flows through his neighborhood, and the river as a watershed. “The Mystic River Watershed” is a narrative that integrates informative views of the watershed with community advocacy addressing issues related to water quality, the preservation and improvements of its habitat for wildlife and ourselves, as well as creating greater public awareness of its rivers, streams, lakes and ponds as a resource and treasure.
