->> Fabulous!

For one thing I do not think there are enough good words to describe Bill Eppridge. And then there is just not enough ways to talk about and remember and revisit those times that included Woodstock, Vietnam, the Civil Rights Movement and the assassinations of John and Robert Kennedy.

->> For one incredible week when I was at Mizzou I had the privilege of driving around Mr. Eppridge. Got to talk to the man first hand as he recounted history. Even was able to raise a glass or two or a dozen.

Great man. Great story. Basically one of the cornerstones around which the foundation of photojournalism is built.
