Posing with Martin Luther King Book
Today, at a display at a local bookstore, holding a book about Martin Luther King. Hopefully, next year, I’ll be standing here with my own book about MLK.
Robert Iger, Me, and Backyard Bird Photography
It’s not every day that you get to present your book to the Chairman and CEO of The Walt Disney Company, but Bob, ever gracious, posed with me and my book. A really nice gesture. When I showed him the inscription in the book, he said, “Oh, that’s nice.” I said to Bob, “Would you be in a picture with me and the book, I won’t post it, I’ll just save it for personal use,” and he said, “You can post it.” So here it is, along with the dedication. A great moment, indeed.
First edition MLK book with compliments card
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE: CHAOS OR COMMUNITY? just arrived, along with a collector’s item, a business card that Martin Luther King’s publisher gave him in 1967 to put in the books that he gave to special people. The card and the book are both in great shape.
Martin Luther King Day 2016
Today is Martin Luther King Day, so I posed with a first edition Martin Luther King, Jr.’s 1967 book WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE: CHAOS OR COMMUNITY? This vintage copy reminds me that in that year, MLK achieved so much that he imparted to people. I’m holding in my hands a copy that could have been given to my fictional kids in my novel, in 1967, by MLK himself. Photograph by Robert Spencer.
Portraits where I look at the books
I hope these are effective. I think you can see my affection for these titles.
