Folger Student Theater Festival

Here are a number of my personal favorite images from a student Shakespeare performance festival that I documented for the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington DC.

Thanks to Garland Scott of the Folger for the assignment, Mistress Of The Revels Cam Magee, and to the talented teachers and students who participated.

Field of Dreams photo illustration (1996)

Full page spread, with a photograph I made on assignment some years back for Independent School magazine. The art director was Glenn Pierce.

The photograph was made on Polaroid type 665 black-and-white positive/negative film, then printed and selenium-toned.

Shake.

 

Published work brought to light

I recently discovered this published material in an online search for my work (yes, I got properly compensated, but had not seen the printed pieces).
