You Know, The Camera Is Not Meant

I Was There Less Than A Year Before I Was Assigned To The Paris Bureau. I Spent Two Years There And, In Fact, Before I Even Went On The Staff I Was Sent To Europe To Do Assignments Which They Wouldn't Normally Do For A Young Photographer Just Starting Out.

People In Millenniums Ahead Will Know What We Were Like In The 1930's And The Thing That, The Important Major Things That Shaped Our History At That Time. This Is As Important For Historic Reasons As Any Other.

I Think Maybe The Rural Influence In My Life Helped Me In A Sense, Of Knowing How To Get Close To People And Talk To Them And Get My Work Done.

And Now, I Feel At 85, I Really Feel That I'm Just Ready To Start.

I Bought My First Camera In Seattle, Washington. Only Paid About Seven Dollars And Fifty Cents For It.
