Moving story about a unique friendship
Kolman Rosenberg, Photographer

->> Some of you may have seen this story on ESPN, but if not, it's worth a look. About 2 young high school wrestlers from Cleveland. One is blind and the other a double lower extremity amputee. They have developed a unique friendship.

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/otl/news/story?id=4371874

I had the honor of getting to know these 2 young men while shooting the B&Ws for this video and the text version!

Some of these shots and others are posted on my SS page.

->> Kolman, you did a great job on this piece. With all that's going on right now, I did not want to start crying because I knew I would not stop. It took everything I had in me NOT to start crying. I guess that's what makes this piece so great. Thank you.
