  • Air Force Vet at the Craft Show
    I met Glenn at the Pawtuxet, RI Gaspee Days Craft Show where he was raising money for disabled veterans. He graciously told me about the challenges facing veterans as early as the Korean War all the way up to the present day. During his time in the Air Force, he suffered injuries to his back and, as the badge on his left shoulder indicates, post-traumatic stress syndrome.

  • Portland Frank with Cigar
    I was finishing up the run of a play in Portland, Oregon and I chanced upon Frank with his unlit stogie and prominent bandage. He was standing on the corner taking in the sun and greeted me with a smile and a "Howdy". We talked for about a half an hour about his life back in Hollywood and his love of the theatre. We had a grand time!

  • Old Man Alone with his Thoughts, Portland.OR
    I never actually got a chance to speak with this man, but I was struck by the weight of the world that seemed to drag him down. He was off in a corner in the middle of a bustling street festival with dancing and singing all around him. He seemed so alone in the midst of so many.

    Palmer was frail and in another world when I saw his daughter leading him into the beautiful Japanese Gardens in Portland,OR. He reminded me of Monet wandering through his beloved gardens near the end of his life.
