Joan Higginbotham - Astronaut

I recently photographed Joan Higginbotham, engineer and former NASA astronaut who served aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery mission STS-116 as a mission specialist. She was the third African-American woman to take part in a space mission.

She spoke to the American Clinical Laboratory Association about her challenges and trailblazing successes.

Quarantine Diary 25 | Anti-racism vigil on 16th Street NW DC, part two (Fabrangen)

Every Friday evening during June 2020, an anti-racism vigil has been held along the entire length of 16th Street NW, Washington DC.

These photographs are of my own religious community, Fabrangen, and some members of our host congregation, the Washington Ethical Society. 

It is said that  יהוה can be heard in the sound of the shofar blast.
