The Japanese Internment

I found out about this old Dr. Suess cartoon from World War II while reading a book about photographer Dorothea Lange and her work during the internment of Japanese Americans. I have always been fascinated by that part of American history being an Asian American of partial Japanese heritage. I was surprised though that even Dr. Suess was on the bandwagon of paranoia about the Japanese during that time. Ansel Adams and Lange also were at odds with Lange being one of the few on the side of the Japanese Americans and seeing the civil liberties of Americans being taken away. The book is called Impounded.

Fujiya & Miyagi

Saw a great show last night at Mezzanine - Fujiya & Miyagi. Got hooked up with a photo pass and backstage access so it was pretty fun checking out the bands while they got ready and after their sets...

Collin Fischer

I had the fortune of running into Collin Fischer at the Arnold this year and we shot during the weekend. She had pretty much disappeared from the scene after she turned pro, but looks tremendous still. We're looking to set up more time to do another shoot so I am definitely looking forward to that.
