Newly-launched aCurator magazine featured my series of women ‘of a certain age’ photographed on upper 5th Avenue in Manhattan, in the first issue. The series looks great in the full screen format and apparently the readers loved it; London’s glossy magazine The Big Issue, a publication distributed by and for the homeless, featured my series in their review of aCurator.

‘Texas Cop’ was honored in the third Photography Masters Cup, an international award for color photography. I found him at a fast food joint while on a Texas road trip. He was a pretty intimidating character but I mustered up the courage to ask him if I could take his portrait. To my surprise he said yes.
