Rehoboth Beach, Delaware With Frank Jump


Listen Later

Frank Jump, a retired NYC technology teacher, is also the author and photographer of the Fading Ads of NYC published in 2011 by the History Press.  His book documents ghost signage through the lens of an artist living with HIV/AIDS. It has become a metaphor of survival for Jump since, like himself, many of these ads have long outlived their expected life span. 

 

Twenty-four of his images were exhibited at the NY Historical Society in NYC in 1998. In 1999, he launched the Fading Ad Campaign website and later a celebrated blog of the same name. A lifelong LGBTQ and AIDS activist, Jump married his partner Vincenzo, in 2004 in Toronto Canada, and later again in NYC in 2017. Jump and his husband have been living in Milton Delaware since 2016.
