Find me elsewhere

For a few pages that I did while I worked at Sun Publications, look at Sid Hastings' Web site. Sid was my photo editor and worked with me and the photographer on a page that won a Society for News Design award. The page, with the headline "Little Things Mean a Lot," features pictures of a car show in downtown Plainfield, IL and were shot by Pulitzer Prize winner Todd Heisler.

I worked on this page with one of the reporters and our graphic designer, who created the bottom portion. We often get request for reprints and have published the page several times after wildfires, earthquakes and floods.
