There are just some careers where it is difficult to "have it all," and not kill relationships in the process. :) Most of the couples I’ve known over the years who’ve tried to do what we’ve done (I’m a newspaper PJ and now editor) and have children have ended up divorced.

It has made everything so much easier, and is a decision we have never regretted. But for most people, children are more important than careers, and wouldn't be happy making the same choice we did. You make your choices and you pay your price. :)

As: 1)Agnes is a western woman, from France, seriously educated at La Sorbonne, euro-asian if you will. 2)Yunghi is asian american, or in any case, working/settled in the USA. 3) and 4), Xian and Asako are artists strictly (It would never occur to me to think there are no asian women artists of renown). A together different realm than representation in the photographic profession, either as staff P. or freelancer, which IMO, is the topic, mainly based on women and APPLYING/SUBMITTING FOR THE SAME JOB. Now, the search can begin... ;-) PS: I made a mistake by mentionning Khyunghee, as she is also an artist, but it was more for paying homage to our almost unique asian woman photographer, on BURN (that we know of). She actually outdid anyone of us, in terms of being lavishly published. OK, Bob, about these 4 photographers, as I just looked up their work, not exactly what I meant. As:

By the way, I recommend the ASIAN PHOTOGRAPHY BLOG at: http://www.chngyaohong.com/blog/ It's on top of my favorite websites, with plenty of men and women featured, almost daily. A labor of love from the website owner. Is that homework enough, Bob? :-)))) Thanks, Bob.

Where was she? Another Magnum "woman with camera." She'll be giving a talk here in Santa Fe next week...along with Fusco and Manos. Unfortunately I'll be shooting in Taos so will have to miss the Magnum opening and some of their talks. I sent you an email earlier today. Hope you got it. David,

Hopefully enough funds keep on rolling in to match the needs... I guess that that gallery has to get going to get something from sales!
