On 9-19-25 I photographed an event for Haverford College in collaboration with the Center For Creative Works. The artist’s showing work there were some of the most impactful I have ever met. This woman could not see and could not hear, yet she manages to survive with a smile on her face and amazing artwork to show. There was a moment when I took her photo’s where she wanted to feel the camera to understand what it was. Then she wanted to feel my face and my beard to understand who I was. My eyes filled up, the bumps on my skin went goose! I tried my hardest not to burst into tears. I don’t know if I have ever felt a moment like that before. I will never forget it.
