Last night I finally watched The Lives of Others (Das Leben der Anderen). I rented the DVD from Netflix a couple weeks ago because it is about state surveillance of citizens' private lives. Of course, this is a component of the plot of my favorite novel, Milan Kundera's The Unbearable Lightness of Being. To me, the respect of privacy in the lives of others should be one of The Ten Commandments of human decency.

******************************************
My mother is Dutch, and my father's family came from Prussia after World War I. I come from a family of artists, but I have always been the writer. Modeling allows me to participate in the process of creating art.
My advanced academic degrees allowed me to enjoy the last two decades as a college professor. I have published poetry, fiction, scholarly articles, and books. One of my books has been translated into Indonesian and Chinese and republished with the imprint of Viva Books in India.
I am looking for photographers motivated to achieve high quality work in collaboration with a creative model. I love working with other models, as my portfolio discloses.
I will travel to work with photographers who are willing to pay expenses and/or fees. Let's talk.
Photographers also travel here for shoots. I live near Lake Michigan in the fruit belt and snow belt. Southwestern Michigan is beautiful year-round. This part of the state is essentially in the greater Chicago area, just to provide a compass.
