The Chihuly show at the New York Botanical Gardens is well worth seeing at night, and last night they hosted an evening of Opera with Glimerglass so after the performance I took a stroll through the new exhibit.

Malala Yousafzai

in ,

I would say that generally my policy was to politely refuse a "celebrity" photo opportunity. Then years ago Bill Clinton asked if I wanted a photo and I politely declined and immediately felt like a rude idiot. How could I refuse the opportunity with Malala Yousafzai. I hope my daughter has even an ounce of her drive

““My great hope is that this will be the last time we must fight for the education of our children. Let us solve this once and for all.””

Sirius XM at the Comedy Cellar in 2013

in ,

Before I had kids I used to photograph much more entertainment jobs in the evening and some of these Sirius XM comedy nights were some of my favorite. Especially this particular evening in 2013 where Matt Damon was the surprise guest and Amy Schumer did some incredible stand up routine.
