My Dad

I found this photograph of my Dad this past summer.  I think it is from the late 60's.

"Alexander, 2010"

This is Alexander from the series "Vend."  He is protesting the anti-vending law put in place by Mayor Michael Bloomberg this past summer.  The law states that no one shall be able to set up their tables inside Union Square park limits.

The Roots "The Fire" Music Video set

I had the opportunity to be a P.O.W. in The Roots newest music video "The Fire." It was an awesome experience and very different from what Im used to doing with my photography since I was "acting." Anyways here is one of the stills from the shoot. I am on the right-hand side with the black beanie folded up.

street vendors

Here is a quick unedited scan of a portrait I made about a week ago in Union Square. It is for my street vendor series, in which the USP grant is supporting. This guy was ridiculous. He was rehearsing to me a very fictional and confusing story about "Sausage Head" (the book he is holding). He was very anxious to leave and I literally set up the tripod, leveled the camera, focused, put the film in and pulled the darkslide in under 2 minutes flat. Everyone moves so fast in the city, I still do not know where 95 percent are going. I am also pretty sure cab drivers are like hermit crabs, once one car dies they crawl into the next and drive away.

USP Grant Approval

I was recently awarded with a grant that I had written up a proposal for in March. The proposal was to research and document street vendors and their products in New York City. I will keep you posted with updates and new scans once I begin this project in about 3 weeks.
