Diane Arbus

Diane Arbus sent me this cool "HEADLINES SCREAMED" collage, all pasted on a repurposed pizza box which is soooo Diane. She's now 93 and spry as an elderly chicken. For the past several years she's been working at the Hill Country Barbecue in Manhattan where she runs the register and has a quip for every patron. (Mine was emailed to me). Worthy of note: Diane affixed a rare 2 cent Richard Canard Commemorative. This is like gold on eBay. Thanks, Diane. And may I just add a personal note about how much I admire your work. On a hot summer day all I need to do is open your book and feel the chilly wind of sorrow blowing up off the pages.
