Newly Discovered Robert Frank Photos
A stash of photos by Robert Frank, long-thought to be lost were recently discovered in the NY Times archives. The images were part of a book, “New York Is” which was created for prospective advertisers for the Times. Other photographers like Lillian Bassman and Roy DeCarava were included in the collection. “New York Is” came out the year before Robert Frank’s masterpiece “The Americans” was released, forever changing the world of photography!

Country Music Hall Of Fame
I’ve been shooting at the Country Music Hall Of Fame the last few weeks helping them catalog their collection. I’ve photographed everything from Hank Williams suit to Ira Louvin’s mandolin. Wanda Jackson’s dress, Roy Roger’s boots and just about every guitar you can think of. It’s been a great job-lots of interesting stories and it’s always amazing getting to see all the instruments up close.
