photographs that reflect the importance of family life the rise of her son to come to clean welcome to welcome ari by doesn't go ahead iran or lawyers act as good at that's what photographs now kelly on how to become a do one of the take pictures of everything around you says was sixteen i used to sit with my granddaddy on his screened in front porch in mississippi and he had have the lab tonight to saving anything of interest like that and i would look at pictures over and over and wasted at a camera so i could make some pictures like that someday so that was candidate litton may and on the photographer thin when it is go get their camera probably and night train forty man of fifty but before that camera used other cameras
them like some of the pictures with but this has been the main camera and marty human the subject with him as we see israel on human the subject of iran her camera ever since well almost as long as you've been in on cam absolutely vergara uses those a part of our own and my sister came i was involved in a methodist is just part of them will money in denver or if there was it so often yes i can afford the long hair as when they were born i started like in a lot of pictures and just kept it up buy a banana when they get together for a special occasions on i have to bring the camera but he still uses one know i have another one now and at least this one lightly i have done some work with they get that up and let slip me on camera going on in now howl is that this
cameras from man one that was that would date back to the forties and i bought it from a photographer that i had a kind of big internet in the head but it scared me added know to plan it was that complicated it's about three steps are to get a good image and i hereby declare new black and wide to get their hair set your own plan and set your own life in america and hashtag work so it was a lot easier to go to another camera but this would really go the story from a solo first picture to have with a picture of the world right now with this one it was with another camera that i wanted the camera that was before i was even six day and i was younger and hate so the country magazine grier and water will cameron i want it so bad he was afraid i would be receptive to it and that he had been limited to get his picture made so that was really the first big german nine million
well let's let's let's look it's a mere picture of them and the ethical years and that's the country of first publication in the cotton fields of farm was mistaken that was our progress and night train forty eight of forty nine you how that was my data card and fail and mississippi as the cotton new sailboat or opened up to four machines that god knows when we pick that true unless the next that's a far as our call look at is for me as a pawn in a room for johnson's informed her father's four and bound as always saved me about what would i see had from that i think everything but it's a soggy day gratitude for granted she saw a beauty and she saw rnc so and the majesty of it and it's just a whole planet small pond of the country but your
liver can do well and there is and then as matt they maybe had been to work in the cotton they ocean came in all of the care that a gray davis picture may know how you will appear to stick with ellen out a prom a light and night to age eighteen and i think one element to ensure mother no leslie of that is that's the story carrying years it's unlikely or at the old home place but still people who had cotton them live in the background or say some can't vote but that's one person's came from iowa where in context and that one is a mum other years and that was your audition days so that would've been taken in nineteen fifty i know that you know who has the years and as jack yeah this picture i know there
was talk about the this is a picture of baptism it that god will aid are our characters will prompt a character did not have a battery said they used a creek and this one was that as an end this one was set on that man's father love our place and not person as the one that's good and bad there's no i know every photographer talks about the photograph missed and i know that i know that i know that you think one baptism scene is when you miss then i know you've talked about the light on your mother's air and let two would've loved the name of the captured but he got away that and that was my grandmother the one that we just think that wade saying and later in a laptop lab granddad and grandmother wanted to be back tears and so the family got together and five hours about august fifteenth than i went down to a
creek they oppose these were the boys who used it for their swimming place and seems that letter at the water she had a little lamb and they let one that letter on the water there was and it was can a lack of clout came over with and some of them really can't swim to get out in the water the clown was just common over and then all of a sudden that clad gave away the spotlight kid down on her hip and i've never forgotten it not always waste and i have a photograph of that to show everybody gets and what a beautiful sight it was but then when a person with medicare stepped out about that so i got the cameron ray and so i believe they're going to get that money looks to use it every holiday and sometimes every sunday there she was with a camera can record of the family they're about her grandmother
grandfather father or mother and ajami yeah and those were in those photographs of became so familiar to me the rudest in a cigarette butts an organized system that the house the rose and she bought a photo album that i would study now the challenge amaranth money ever have fallen every nuance in every detail of her photographs and our what always from the beginning is testing out how familiar they were how friendly you were in reform reform russell moore the strangely welcome everybody in and the first of all it's a new york city i went in the villas de jazz bookstore and hours at an oppressive of authority but that day was truly live at the at the bookstore the reason for the rest of the top of the stove black and white taken by jazz bass player named milton uses know kerry's cameron one hand his base in the other and he shot the same color photographs in my opinion that my mom start mom a certain feathery using holidays in getting in his accent his siblings were louis armstrong at a diner or are you know ella
fitzgerald play a dice with the guys that was your full access but they were friendly and warm and inviting and that day i when i was fourteen years old and i have the same access to country music now this is what i want so let the camera started the bookstore called mother asking ships and a camera which she did and that's what started me that she voted for tarp if it was that familiar family atmosphere was country music absolutely invited of course we know it's just a big family in a way that was among those pictures that i saw the connection although let's look at some more there you are and marty as a billboard there's another son a bit like snow have not say that that was a lawyer arturo there's ever been a snowfall mississippi recently risen to rival the best new monday winning the future of the city until november seventh and there you are the lady next tour of the
feminist or to normal more wonderful people and they were just a fact of life for those answers they'll know when you like well i don't like me i like you do what about that one but what government is absolutely nothing is james la cowboy clothes the daily that are in the air that it took to get done alison alair and eric monte is with jennifer ludden and that goes well what do you about a man it's about sixty seven or sixty eight was integrating ole lula every holiday every birthday every christmas every step you get the gamut they're out of the kids or they're others knocked into the record another moment and a lot of lawn yet but i never thought of that in of heaven above but i'm just
so glad that we do it in the pictures you were saying before this epoch someday i'll have a family and i made a record elvis said they'll know where i came from and so it that just want to live and because those movies this program has of bell all our office and photographers and how book someday and muddy you're responsible for this book i know that summer was a wonderful soul and documentarians right a great writer a great photographer would be humorous the average leah had known tom's mindfulness added a display down in nora's at the ogden museum courtyard of countries in time oh the eggs into his photographs at the same time when that shook hands and all the way down the oscars and love to have you work a depressive done they'll be happy to show anything you showed you say than anything else you will bring us and also to bring it up my mother is a wonderful sport southern photographer up
for work up against a race that tossed in a second bag a sense of her work and he fell in love the colonies is absolutely so her first show and was at duke university and the downright his response is that he wrote the foreword to the book a thousand women and viable partner francis well it you know it so well the low point i made earlier on about the picture mr and the first victory of roll around and came from reading with ahmed say about those could we go can honestly our control room to put the pitch the cover picture of likely to talk about that i think that's a classic and i think that picture and when after getting rejected what year nineteen fifty fifty one fifty year at to be fifty fifty one who actually
lived in mississippi one of the big names that ever about elected is go fishing over in lhasa lake in the delta and janet hess went over a good bet clayton cameron labor that under the shades open and get a good shot of sontag and he'd take me back to the banks i'm ten and to get into shape and alec that and saw him come in and roland about black that and i thought oh that's a great shop so i jumped up and make the shot right quick open it turned out but then there was that they still had to be serious had it doesn't want to look at the young marty stuart and then there is new and jennifer and looking for the king holiday album is john kerry should have a lot so many years eight or
nine years older but nothing's changed the famous sister has lent us and five record i have for crime or johnny cash i will try and there's another bit as a big mac it is it hasn't denied that that's funny lead our country today we have five hundred what radio station or attended the agency that was a wonderful station there's a local announcer named joe lines and joe announced it was going to be the star of the choctaw fair that year and that was a big day for us and i had mothers take me to a department store and buy the deal asserts o'connor would notice me and the first page article my life was later on lanai with medicare issues with the advantage of a regular parishioner look i got arrested that knows they've been unbelievable how most of america and local you did a wonderful story and a wonderful picture this is well you aren't as big source of
a case of us on the show or your interviewer rona richard i want my report cards are just awful from the time and all the you know there is one of those categories too nervous and uses time wisely and always four years the beginning of this whole book was in reno nevada about fifteen years ago there was a hotel up in new places and a revived a certain places but the bad part about it there was an elephant they get to be that open and i think belonged to the guy at the hotel so she is legendary so i agree with jared the show's gaza were not glamorous was a recent years let the elephant over when you fly and there for weeks it went back upstairs and i use the time wisely to take all of her negatives and sort of mouth and that the result of that is as book so just a form and that they use not timelines the missouri such fun
that you get at the at the lives of other people for those of you just dirt to me and now i'm talking to the hill and marty stuart about choctaw gardens which is a book of photographs hill being many of those were those were observing is as we go along a little bit about about him and how it was put that land so all the unknown and attention at moments and sometimes at just the right moment well we lived in mississippi for a while before we moved to nashville that have less true of more years and i noticed one of the grand opera stage in everywhere actor ed carbon the palm of the kid you know good moments at the day with it later today it with a plan to
get a good shot right then because it would happen again so as that an adult went to church and then i think you've captured those moments and let's look at some more of them off there we are they're available to us that was from one of the first week incidentally on stays in the approval and thirty there aren't alike in the front of the stage those boxes as they discussions that they sold to the religious folks that because the pews will get so hard after i was it is one of the front as for opposing as a very unfair was the formal court but it was a very informal grand isle of the charm yeah as i look at it but you know you'll probably in the balcony on right stage and act and head the liberty there are eye and then when i sell what you touch my guest so that same say they'd almost there before
and i'm like no way up to the balcony so i could shoot down from the balcony and get the most say it and that's les deux to your left money that's right questions ran the national press and that this is a festival and he was wise arkansas and the thing that i remember going to work with less true when mom and then jennifer met with him and they'd say well this is what your ds and yasser was a bluegrass festival alabama and a similar struggle home i get my own clothes outcome daschle says now will work used more and they'll send you that's enough of a reality of an aleppo americans is so that there was the first time a solemn and for about a month and i was there was a busy month for him that was a but that's in a live there was just a makeshift stage in a bluegrass just wanna drive and an arkansas huge reserves and there is a music don't
know the story about the un and lester flatt and now he really adopted well univision as part of his own is a solidarity of the minnesota ride a lot of a friend of mine and a white was in his pamphlet or a weekend every day wicca and you were all thirteen years of a lion air and he offered me a job at the end of the week here and out in our use of the telephone between delaware and they're so plucky and kabul is the man that saddam must our national pop warner for the star soloist with small pictures of it we are this is an autograph hunter after marty stuart jordan right now even though there was a rouse about fourteen or fifteen maybe there's an alley that warm up and see the desk just across and there you are with a certain gun owners now
i was about sixteen and i want to capture that picture that you're there and were talking backstage confused them and marty how much emotion going to sprout up in and i just stepped away from him and made the kitchen but boyd may have stayed out of the way it would not a stage i just observant but i guess the right tam pitch that status of the standard shots on this year are muslim a friendless where the dean of caution is always called in the ghost you never knew was there but when he did he was always will now less than another to their spawning and johnny talk about that photograph i think it was dignity back at him you're playing down update program and john a crowd then invited to come up to take that it would get given him a radio a
lot of some plant and and in our with these so he told nbc it you're forced to come on and it was worn down rain and mother would renew it done is move away but i get to step back and make the big bow melissa gray has a great pitcher and now what about yours they don't so much eliza show and that's a lot of the comments from or wire and that's one of those chants mama mama can shoot well that's i'm getting more into modern times i'm so you know this one small hole or something in which is i am not all from earth day special occasions like if the camera at that and say it won a day out and anna first good shot of the head a bird or anything in my
backyard are discounted the city of south america's going to have a lot of love money engine of a and europe primary target this year so the document in their growth and marty's illusion is a as a country music star yes others words interest it in a christian family that black and whites and then when i came along all day long good said dick show that is headed up in a bar where was at duke as i really enjoyed this guy's stepping back and i listened to people's comments and watch and then look at her work in one is imported she studies on human study anywhere and the other thing that the resulting calm it was only have a picture just like that we know about it is like that and i think that's what the appeal this book is an as the encouraging part of this book anyway as a camera or as kennedy studies
that document different document life around it all majors and make such a great example i know among them and there's nothing like a family album isn't says it's exam at what you've done here is created an album of your family but it's actually a lot for generations here i used to go there is to have my mother and knows no television shows no radio friendly dish that sit there with a quiet night a while ask them do you have any photographs the family they might bring out all instead like this sort of cigar box of photographs and and then they talk about some of their people might just sound that was just a start when the way and a man and i wonder what the folks black and i thought if i ever get a camera angle like pictures of art and you know people should understand they're women seem almost routine but there are pictures of snapshots in this book particularly
there in the army years when john was of the military there is that there is a picture of your home but first tom dart about that picture that stint as i thought of years now and that's the route that that thats auto guards that was at the name of the parthenon sculpture tell garnes because the bureau any of indian affairs to the choctaw nation was on the same streets of the nickname suppose but there was a little house and we met all in the years right any other thing i have found in prison where does when she was mocking her own business doing absolutely nothing and i saw a book and those negative they're in the health care and the encouraging thing to me is that cac is a photography start now than words hanging in museums across the nation and anybody could just do this shoot you do it yourself all and she did it this is war as in law
was a great tribute to both of you i'll just tell you when money first to me about this picture investors talk about that one right there for a minute who took that picture out name an activity to fail and later when john astin service we read it it's not an apartment dangers is the flat where i get a flat and then both right across the river from new york and well i had heard like that one just remind you that there are at the times you know well we run our time is going so great then you'd money thank you for making this book were killed a thank you for your time and it's a it's been such a great experience to have both of all evil watching and johnson and offer a word on words he was really watching
