I’m pleased to share that I’m one of the Urban Photo Awards 2022 Selected Photographers! And they had over 10,000 submissions! Here’s my page in the competition’s gallery, featuring my 2015 photo Spiral, shot on my iPhone 5s.

I’ve also been selected to exhibit my drawing Tree Hugger, which I made when I was in high school, in Exhibizone’s Kingdom Animalia 2022 international online group exhibition! The show runs throughout July.

Here’s a fun shirt I ordered from a local bookstore.

And I’ll close with this: A page from my diary when I was 13, Ravinia Festival, Highland Park, summer 2001.

Some links:

• My Twitter thread of GoFundMe links for victims and survivors of the July 4 parade mass shooting.
• An important article by Elad Nehorai for The Forward: “This couldn’t happen anywhere: How coverage of the shooting failed Highland Park.”
• Jessica Kaplan, a Highland Park painter with ME/CFS whose bio and statement I wrote, is collaborating with another local artist to raise money for her beloved hometown. 100% of proceeds go to the community.
• DECAHEDRON artist Kathy Halper, whose hometown is also Highland Park, created this piece as a response to the tragedy. She has prints as well as the original oil painting, and she is donating 100% of proceeds to the victims.
