On Travel

The richness of constant movement.

Before Mandrake the Magician passed away he asked me what I wanted to do with my life. I was 16 years old and had fallen in love with photography. I told him I wanted to take my camera and hitchhike across the country and take pictures of the people I meet. He liked that I wanted to travel. He was about my age when he left home to join Vaudeville as a traveling magician. I never did hitchhike across the country, but in 2005, I had an amazing opportunity to go across country in style - in a giant 18-wheeler mack truck.
