Above: Track Olympian, Jackie Joyner-Kersee took time to take a photo with me during the 2007 St. Louis Gateway Classic Sports Foundation Lifetime Achievement Awards Dinner. Thank you Maurice Meredith for taking the photo with my camera :)
I woke up this morning with the idea of digging out of my archive several "famous" folk that I have met and photographed over the years. At the moment I was only able to pull out a few images from 2004, 2006 and 2007. I was afforded all of these images and opportunities from the Missouri State Post and Kansas State Globe newspapers. I was their official photographer and often traveled to document several special events. The majority were from various St. Louis Gateway Classic Sports Foundation weekend activities; if I recall, I photographed that event every year for 10 years.
Stay tuned, as I will be posting more images from my Archive Hall Of Fame in the coming months.
