Publisher's Synopsis
"Transit Vietnam" - is part of my photographic odyssey from 1970-71. Fresh out of high school I joined the Air Force. I had the most dysfunctional family imaginable so I couldn't wait to grow up and run away. I didn't know what to expect when I got to Vietnam. I imagine in my crazy head I was like Ulysses in "Homer's Odyssey" which we had read and re-read in Theodore Roosevelt High School. Bronx, New York. I also had read Ernest Hemingway and he influenced my decision to sign up to go to Vietnam. I always was interested in photography and took pictures of my family, friends, and while I was in Vietnam. I would switch from cameras like Kodak's to more sophisticated ones like Canon, Yashica, Ricoh, and Pentax. It didn't matter which camera it was as most of the time I was experimenting with them and snapped photos of whatever interested me. The pictures here date from 1970-71 and I'm thrilled to present them in this book. To all my friends I traveled with across the sea in a Homeric Odyssey, this is for you.
