#350 PHOTOWALK: INSPIRATIONAL LIFE JOURNEYS
A childhood journey across America inspires guest Anne-Marie Michel to make Sisters of the Road, a book about forty female American truckers, an adventure that doesn't come without risks. We walk together with a mailbag making pictures and sharing ideas with letters today about 'that first photo,' the tonic of photography, old cars and haunting melodies, fierce skies, being immersed in nature and befriending those you make portraits of.
