Hip Hop: A Cultural Odyssey

There’s a gigantic book available on the History of Hip Hop. The gatefold is a beautiful painting by Mike Thompson and as you can see, a photo I took of Lady Pink was a model. I am happy to have my pictures used in this coffee table book. The book is called Hip Hop a Cultural Odyssey  and it is huge and printed on the heaviest paper I’ve ever seen used. This is probably the most comprehensive book on Hip Hop ever published and I’m recommending it highly!

“Harry’s Burritos” 1988

I finally found this negative which I misplaced many years ago. Her name is Phoebe and I was told she is a fairly well known actress. I never shoot celebs and I didn’t know who she was. To tell the truth, I handed my camera to my pal who was riding shotgun because I didn’t want to crawl onto his lap to take the picture. So I developed the film and printed the picture, and then lost the negative twenty three years ago! Here’s a fresh scan of an image I never thought would resurface…
