I was pleasantly surprised to run across this article on Richard, I knew
Richard in Monterey California back in the mid seventies, I was about to have
my first museum show at the Monterey Museum of art and Knowing of Richard’s
great work photographing rockers and other crazies of the time, I asked him
if he would do a portrait of me to be included in the show. He was gracious
to say yes and he took a great portrait That coincidentally I was just
looking at a couple of day’s ago thinking ‘this photo is really good’
Congratulations Richard and I love the beard, Ansel would too. Keep the
