I took this shot at the Bruce R. Watkins Cultural Centerwhen we went to hear two friends, Janet and Stanley Banks read poetry. She was so beautiful in herself, black beret, red coat, elegant make-up, that I wanted to shoot her as she listened to the poetry without her noticing me.
Then I noticed the display behind her: the legends, the leaders — certainly no mere mortals. Nor was she.

The lady in red has many stories to tell!
Sorry it’s taken me so long to reply to this comment you made. Yes, I’d agree she has a lot of stories. She’s one of the reasons I wanted to begin an oral history project.
