To wind down the year I am presenting an encore of my episode with the great Todd Hido. We had this conversation back in 2022, so if you're a new listener, here's your chance to dive into a terrific talk with one of today's major photographers. So much valuable insight shared here... thank you again, Todd!

In the aftermath of World War II, a stark new visual language was developing in Japan. No photographer epitomized this provoking new direction more than Daido Moriyama. I welcome editor and writer Mark Holborn to discuss the seminal work being presented (finally) in the new book Daido Moriyama: Quartet.

On this episode, I have a wonderful conversation with Beirut, Lebanon based photographer Tanya Traboulsi. We discuss family, memories and the desire to connect with the place we feel most at home. An enlightening exploration of personal and universal yearning.

Excited to welcome Michael Ackerman back to the podcast. We talk all about his return to New York on the eve of his newest book release, appropriately titled "Homesick New York." An inspiring artist shares his process.

My guest for this episode is multi-talented, multi-media artist Martin Venezky. We discuss graphic design, collage and, of course, photography. All of this while pondering the challenges of staying curious as you move through life, and learning new things, no matter how old you are. Really enjoyed this conversation; I hope you do, too.

Thrilled to welcome to the podcast fellow Gen-Xer, high desert dweller and photographic experimenter Liz Potter. From Holgas to Polaroid lifts, we run the gamut of topics. I hope you enjoy this fun conversation.

I welcome photo historian and professor Todd Cronan to the podcast to discuss the life and work of the enigmatic Minor White. A driving force in 20th Century photography who deserves a refreshed consideration, White not only held a pivotal role at the helm of Aperture magazine, he also created photographic work that melded the spiritual with the cerebral.

Robert Stivers is a visual artist who uses analogue photographic processes in surprising ways. We have a really fun discussion about his life and his work, noting that one must dance their way through life in order to fully embrace their creative potential... both literally and figuratively.

Season Five starts off by looking back to the 19th Century. Julia Margaret Cameron was a trailblazing figure in the early days of the medium, whose work is still being celebrated today. I talk with curator Allison Pappas about the current exhibition on view at the Morgan Library and Museum in NYC.
