"In Art, a picture is worth a thousand words. In Literature, Authors write a thousand words to tell a single story."

I had this idea of taking photos of American authors and exhibiting them across the country. I started photographing Las Vegas authors with absolutely no one's help. All on my own. The form and style of my photos are of my creation. I alone with no one's help have designed everything that has to do with this project, from taking the photographs to the layout of the Anthology, and the production and direction of the documentary. I wanted it to be unique and different.
