Sobre o livro
Photographs and the story of the discovery of two handicapped brothers whose home had been decorated with their art and cut outs from magazines and catalogs. This is related to the tradition of "wall paperin" common in the Appalachian mountains. Their mother encouraged this when the boys were young (ages six and eight) and they continued to live there until well into their sixties when they moved to an adult care home. This is a wonderful story about place, family, and the joy of living.

I have been blessed with two terrific careers. In the first I was a cardiologist doing international procedures. In the second, I was as photography teacher at Appalachian State University. I just retired from that occupation at the end of 2012. I have always been a teacher. I am interested in people, place, and documenting both. I taught history of photography, alternative processes and documentary photography at ASU.
