Highlights of my professional work

Holding on to history

Parma’s jeep
Click the photo for a slide show

Biaggio Parma is “trying to hold a little bit of history that’s fast sliding away.” This jeep was a reconnaissance vehicle in Europe during the Second World War.

Parma served in the US Navy from 1957 to ’61, working as an electrician aboard an aircraft carrier.

Production notes: All photos were made with a Canon point & shoot. I gathered audio of Parma speaking with a Zoom H2 recorder. The slide show was produced in Soundslides after editing audio in GarageBand and photos in iPhoto. The whole thing took about an hour.
