| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I met a model I wanted go out with, and told her I was a photographer, went out and bought a camera. Halfway through our photo session, I had an epiphany, and decided to make photography my life. Never went out with her. After building my portfolio for 3 weeks, I went to NY modeling agencies and began work in earnest. Then I met Fernando Sanchez on the subway.....Summer 1968. |
