An interesting person well captured, in photo and in print. Gerrit -----Original Message----- From: PDML [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ann Sanfedele Sent: Friday, March 28, 2014 12:48 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Paying gig for Slate (pentax used so not OT)
Stefan asked me for a photo of Lester for this article.. (although the credit reads "courtesy" I am getting paid :-)) The passing of the subject in February was yet another reason why I was so depressed. Les and wife Joan were good friends and Lester was also an old friend of my Richard's (who was another Flea House player and the reason Funk and Wag was used for the "official" dictionary there.) It's a lovely article - hope you read it.. (Pentax LX, 50mm smc F1.4 lens - fuji film.) http://www.slate.com/articles/life/obit/2014/03/lester_schonbrun_remembering _a_great_scrabble_player_and_the_dingy_times.single.html Stefan cropped out the person Les was talking to, which works for the article.
