Remember the Ladies – An Update on Georgia’s Women in Photography
It is Women’s History Month! I am always reminded of the letter dated March 31, 1776, that Abigail Adams wrote her husband John urging him to Remember the Ladies —- remember the ladies and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors.

Tuesday Thoughts and Touching Base
It has been over one month since I posted anything here. The previous month has been a whirlwind for me. In early April I was surprised and pleased to be invited to present at “Photographing the Re-Imagined Self: Early Black Portraiture in South Africa and the United States.” The invitation came from John Edwin Mason, […]
