A Class Act

That Jon Rizzi is one class guy. He’s the Editor of Colorado AvidGolfer magazine, pictured above in his monthly “forethoughts” column. My assignments for the magazine began a few years ago and as we’ve become acquainted we’ve discovered mutual friends from our days at Time Inc., and he’s provided some interesting subjects for me to photograph. Assignments have run the gamut from professional golfers, to stories about equipment, golf course beauty shots, and several cover photographs. I’ve got some very cool photographs to share soon from a story that will run in the May issue.
Okay, Barry, what’s your point? And why is your mugshot in print?
In the Spring issue my photo credit went missing from a couple of images. As the saying goes, sh_ _ happens. In the scheme of life not a big deal, right? Of course in an email to Jon I probably made it sound like the planet revolved around me and it had come to a stop.
Jon went out of his way and gave up precious space in his column to include this photograph and write up about me in the April issue. I’m humbled that he would do that.
