Someone please correct me if I'm mistaken, but this seems to be a new
(and dumb) behavior in iPhoto 09.
In the previous version of iPhoto, I tagged everyone in my pictures
using the keywords field.
To search for them, I could just type their name. To find a picture
with multiple people I
Rick,
You are RIGHT! I have spent hours going through almost 5,000 pictures
using the faces feature and am almost done. Previously I had done
as you and listed combinations of people in the description area of
the photo and could search the keywords for just those two. I had

right? Can you tell me what I get as life here and what does that
life cost me? Maybe I rather stay dead. I can't remember having

Rick,
You have accomplished a lot in a short time and your suggestion as to

If a person wants the combinations that you and I have done in the
past then Faces may not be the right option. If you are wanting to go
through your database quickly then faces
