Frances and her letters

I went with my mother in law and her friend Susan to visit her sister in law, are you following this. Anyway Frances was an editor for a regional magazine in LA for many years and also worked with F. Scott Fitzgerald. The movie "Last Call" with Jeremy Irons as Fitzgerald had Francis visiting the set and helping with keeping the story real. We had tea and talked with Francis for about an hour. She was very gracious in letting me take a few images of her and her home. She is 93 and has a great spirit about her.

I really like this as a diptych of Francis and Letters.

Portrait of Luis' Father

We went down to Tijuana Mexico to our friend Luis' parents home for his birthday. Here is a portrait I shot of his father.

John Lithgow

I love getting to photograph great characters so when I was asked to shoot John Lithgow for a Venice Art mag called FORTH I was excited. I remember John in 3rd Rock from the Sun, a very funny sitcom and the movie Harry and the Henderson's. He is one of those faces that have been working TV and Movies for many years. I love his work and it was great to meet him.

Who knew that John is a portrait painter and a good one? I photographed John while he was painting and then he posed for a cover image for me. What a sweet guy. This is my favorite image.

John's IMDb if you want to know more about what he has done.
