Acknowledgments

Ask anyone who knows me and they'll probably say that it's not a good idea to be around when I'm working on a book, because I'll invariably ask to make a photographic example of you. This book was no exception, and I'd like to thank Konrad Eek, Rossitza Jekova-Goza, Emily Clinton, Jeanne Phyllis Verity Parkhurst, Hans Wendl, Rick Poland, Regina Saisi, Joanna Silber, and Marz the cat for standing (or laying) there while they were turned into example images. Special thanks to Annina Collier for accidentally becoming such a good cover model.

Also, a big thanks to the photography students of the 2008 Oklahoma Summer Arts Institute. Always inspiring and fun to work with, they also served as willing models. Check out www.oaiquartz.org to learn more about this exceptional, one-of-a-kind program.

Thanks, too to the grandmothers of GAPA—Grandmothers Against Poverty and AIDS—an amazing NGO in South Africa composed of grandmothers who are trying to hold their families and communities together in the face of the AIDS pandemic, while simultaneously raising their own grandchildren, and fighting to improve the lives of people in townships all over South Africa. Some images of them (and their grandchildren) appear in Chapter 8 and Chapter 12. Check out www.gapa.org.za to learn more about this amazing organization.

Finally, thanks to Colleen Wheeler for concocting the idea in the first place and for being so helpful in bending it into its current shape.
