On Thursday, May 20, the book project's editor, publisher, and I met at my apartment for a working session via Skype with its designer and co-editor. Afterwards, on the sidewalk of East 57th Street, in front of my apartment building, the editor, Matthew Stevenson, snapped the photograph above of John Inglis, the publisher, and me. (John is the handsome young guy with hair and no glasses.)
A friend of mine saw the photo and remarked how well I looked in it. I must admit that I was surprised myself when I saw it. Either Matthew is an exceptionally skilled photographer, or it really is true that appearances are deceiving.
