Answer the question: Who was the first PDML'er you met in person?

In my case: I don't quite remember. It might have been Frank when I went up to Toronto to meet with Michael Reichmann and we arranged a TOPDML gathering at C'est What. Or it might have been Doug Brewer at GFM. I don't remember which came first but it I suspect it was Doug.

So, Frank or Doug. In either case, you can tell what kind of effect it had on me...

At my first GFM, I guess it was 1998, a guy came up to me after one of the sessions and asked if I was the Doug Brewer from the PDML. I allowed that I was, after making sure I had an escape route. He introduced himself as Casey, and I can't remember his last name, but he was on the list for a couple years back then.

I also met Nico that weekend, but it was a while before he joined up.

I did get to spend a pleasant afternoon with John Mustarde on Jan 2, 2000 when I was in the Dallas area. We tromped about in some of his favorite photo spots, and he let me goof around with his 600/4, which I used to photograph some cormorants.
