Today is the day @kattwilliams new book comes out. I've always enjoyed working with Katt and so appreciate his comic genius. These were fun images to make, and I hope you get a chance to read this really great and funny book! #kattwilliams#simonandschuster#paulmobley
The holidays are coming up and these two books remain some of the projects I’m most proud of. If I Live to Be 100 and American Farmer celebrate the people who shaped our country through resilience, hard work and heart.
Catherine Oppenheimer runs the @NationalDance in New Mexico. A former professional ballet dancer, she has used discipline, rigors and the joy of music and movement as a portal to instilling the strongest foundational qualities for achievement:
Studies show the percentage of NDI-NM participants who are proficient in math and reading is nearly double that of district averages. The proof is in the stats!
Catherine told me “Dance is a great teacher—unlike other art forms, you don’t need a paintbrush or an instrument.
One of my favorite portraits of singer songwriter @dustinlynch . I recently heard he started playing guitar around 8 or 9 years old. When he was 16, he performed at the legendary @BluebirdCafeTN and was so well received he decided to start a band. Catch him on tour, he’s amazing!
Had a great time speaking to FRAMES. What a great magazine featuring the finest in photography. I love the fact that they focus on the image and the photographer, not the equipment and specs. They are all about the creative process, which is refreshing!
The bond we have within our department, as well as with all our brothers and sisters in the county and across the nation, is amazing.
Stay safe, stay healthy, stay strong!” Perfectly said Gail!
From my book, American Firefighter.
Gail Schmidt is a volunteer fire chief at the Rockville SD Fire Department.
Every subject in my book reminded me about the dedication and service they all provide us.
Gail said, “ I am truly blessed to be a part of RKVFD and the greater brotherhood and sisterhood of the fire service. I am thankful for the dedicated men and women who are willing to give their time to train and remain
physically and mentally ready to help those in need.
When @CharlesBest started https://t.co/LkVDEffJY7, an online charity that raises money to fund public-school classroom projects through small donations by concerned citizens, he was a recent Yale grad, surviving on a teachers salary, still living at home with his parents in NYC.
https://t.co/LkVDEfghNF vets every project before posting it on the site and donors can search almost any keyword imaginable to find a project that suits their interest or passion. It’s a brilliant model, one that is helping redefine the future of charitable giving.
