The Unplugged Voices verbal narrative Project

“With the completion of my photographic retrospective and memoir, Fragments of Spirit 60 Years: A Photographer’s Recollections of Taos Pueblo, the Region and its Arts, people came up to me, wanting to tell their stories of the marvelous land of the Four Corners.

I shortly began curating sorties from friends, friends of friends, random acquaintances.

Unplugged Voices has to date won 5 book awards and is finalist for the Benjamin Franklin award from IBPA and Colorado Humanities Book Award.”
