About Susan
06.01
This is me – Susan. This is how I look pretty much all of the time. A little tired, more or less in style (well, probably on the less side), reddish hair, one eye a little smaller than the other, and a smile. The smile probably defines me as much as the tiredness. I’m working on that last, though.
I’m retired – taught 7th-grade language arts – the last of my 25+ jobs. (That’s another post.) They all had a common thread, however – pictures. I’ve been taking pictures since I was a kid. It wasn’t until I turned to photography seriously, and then photo collage, that I realized that I had always been taking pictures.
Without me and my Brownie Kodak, we wouldn’t have pictures of our Christmases when we were little, or our vacations (there weren’t many of those), or relatives. So actually, I was documenting more than just taking pretty photos.
I continue to document just about everything which drives my family nuts sometimes. But I’m making the memories we’ll look back on – I’m turning the raw material into stories. And I’m sticking with that story – because it’s true.








Dear Susan,
Hello, my name is Remie Rahman. I’m a student at the University of California Riverside. I came across your photo, Me And My Shadow, and I really loved it. I was hoping that I could probably use it as a background for an Anti-Hazing poster. I do not want to use your photo without your permission, so please if I could use please consider it and e-mail me back. If you would like, we will put your name at the bottom of each poster made to acknowledge your photo. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
Remie Rahman
